As a new member, i would like to start out by pointing out just how amazing this book is. Unlike your classic everyday press book, William was not bribed or tempted to much, which puts a subtle twist on the standard "Should i do the right thing?" predicament, notably by nearly removing it entirely. I would definitely suggest buying this book if you haven't already. Now this is, as you may have noticed, an opinion, and if your policies don't allow opinions, I apologize in advance.

Chronology

Although published between Thief of Time and Night Watch, The Truth plainly cannot happen between them, since Night Watch occurs the day Thief of Time ends. The Truth opens on an "icy night" with "freezing fog" with slush and patches of ice, and so must be set in the winter before, since The Times is in existence by Night Watch; but must take place after The Fifth Elephant, since the Watch has an Igor. Therefore The Truth must take place at the start of the year, tentatively 1989. Solicitr 02:19, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
