Reviews:
Gareth (USA: TX) (2010/11/25): Continuing saga of ex-Jhereg Eastern assassin and his loyal familiars: in the course of trying to help a boy who became psychically and physically damaged saving Vlad, our hero stumbles onto a huge financial ponzi scheme. Written in 1996, this book is almost prescient in its depiction of what a government will do to save its butt. We meet (and learn more about) a couple of old friends as well.
