Who is Miles?

When Thursday escorts her family to the VIP seats at the Croquet match, Joffy is with Miles. So I don't have to go back through earlier books, please remind me: Who is Miles?

Thanks. That was what I thought, but I can't find him. Where is he introduced?

Spoilers ahead for LIaGB... but I'm assuming most people reading the SR forum will have read that one


When Landen was eradicated Miles was the bloke staying at Thursdays place, whom Thursday feared might be the father of her child in the non-Landen universe.

He's introduced as Joffy's partner when the Irrev. Next arrives at Thursday's apartment to pick up some of Miles' things.

Ah, you must be American. Howdy howdy howdy. He'll be referred to as Kilometers in your copy of LIAGB

I thought Americanos still spoke in old money? Kilometers is a very european thing.

Yeah, maybe so. I'll defer. I still think it's funny though :)

Who made the kilometers joke? That was painful! One of the worst jokes I've ever heard. Kudos, by the way. Calling a pun painful in my family is a sign of appreciation.

Sadly, an undeveloped generic at this point but as a provider of child care in a pinch, an all around good guy!
