I was looking for a comfort re-read and picked this one out of stack. As usual, Steve Perry does not disappoint and this was as much fun as the last time I read this.

I just read this again and enjoyed it even more this time. This book is so obviously done by a man who is much more confident in his writing talents than some of the earlier works in the series.
The character development of Lazlo Mourn is well crafted and the plot advances to the point where you realize their actions become a forgone conclusion.

In some of the other books in the series I've felt as if the author was playing deux exmachina, but this book is far from that feeling. The plot becomes a logical extension of the characters' personalities and actions. ( )
