Ok, so I understand why people are trying to figure out a way that Sylvia was NOT saying that Gideon killed Nathan, because, lets' face it, girls..we all love our Gideon. (or MY Gideon..just kidding) anyways, and it's so hard for us to conceive how he could now be a murderer. Its something that most if not all of us could not live with. Even if we all believe, and I do, that he was justified. Sylvia just said recently that she is not going to make excuses for her characters, which to me means that they are who they are and they do what they do...right or wrong. SHe also said they are "deeply flawed", so again I think she couldn't be clearer in stating yes, Gideon DID kill Nathan. I would like tobelieve that he went over there to scare him and killed him in self defence..but it just doens't look that way. She also mentioned before that the name Gideon means something like POwerful Warrior...Gideon is a warrior for Eva. HE would do anything. So sad to say, Sylvia couldn't have been more clear, he did do it....I would also like to think that I wont read Chapter one on May 7th (right near my birthday) but who am I kidding...I will devour that first chapter!
