It's good but not the best Vance has written IMO. Also reading Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. Interesting mix of fantasy and contemporary, but it's not grabbing me quite as hard as the Dresden Files did. I just finished a very interesting book entitled Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance. It is full of very interesting insights on human abilities and ethics. He's also a very good writer (I really enjoyed his first book, Complications (which really pulls the curtain back from the inner workings of the surgical profession). Both are highly recommended.</blockquote>
