Question

What should a new reader watch for in House of Adamant?

Short answer

Bonnie, also called Banshee, is the character to watch: her knitting and grandmotherly appearance accompany an intimidating personality.

Notes

Bonnie, also called Banshee, is identified by her knitting and frightening grandmotherly persona. The contrast between that appearance and her authority supplies the joke. Glenn recalls that she eventually had to adopt a uniform. The purpose was to maintain discipline rather than rely on fear.
