I think Storm Front also implies that Dodger is trying to find a way to restore Morgan/Magaera, even if that means working for nasty people.

That's much less of "implies" than "theorizes".

It outright says that he's combing the databanks line by line of every one of the megas he can get into looking for her. But Netcat does theorize that she's become his Paragon, which would make Dodger a technomancer. Well, this is Dodger, afterall. Being a spike baby and hanging with the likes of Laverty and Morgan/Megaera, it makes sense in a way.

I didn't realize Dodger was a spike baby, though it makes sense given what I do know about his background. Do you know where that information is buried? Thanks!

Think it mentions it in one of the books after the Secrets of Power trilogy, featuring Kham, the adept from asia, and Lofwyr sending cyberzombies around. Oh, and also dragon eggs.

Ah, Never Trust an Elf. I was re-reading that a couple months back but left it in a hotel room before I got to Dodger's reappearance. Danke.

Actually, the bit about Dodger being a spike baby comes from before that.  Second book in Secrets of Power, I believe, but maybe the third.

Huh. I actually just re-read these last spring and while there's a lot about his relationship with Professor Laverty, I don't remember any mention of spike babies. May have to take another pass through.
