This is a really good series of books. The plots are clever and lively and the lead character is engaging. he has improved from a heartless b*****d in the first two books to a much more sympathetic figure.

I just stumbled across the first of these books by chance, and it makes me wonder how many great books receive little attention whereas utter rubbish gets both publicity, sales and more perplexingly good reviews.

I would definitely recommend this series.
