Bleep yeah, this is AWESOME! Do you like ridiculously well-thought out worlds? Do you like books that might be SF, might be fantasy, and it's great either way? Do you like mysteries? Do you like fantastic investigator/assistant combos that just work together?

Read. This. Book. 

It's got the worldbuilding of Bujold or Herbert, the banter of Leverage, the plotting of prime Christie, and the pacing of Collins (Suzanne). A+ on all fronts!
