The Family Trade - Charles Arrows

 

Stross's initial book in his Merchant Princes series. Ran across the first two books this week. nice premise & I like the main character so far. goes smoothly. but a little too quickly. I'm always up for a little Medici robber baron intrigue.
I kind of want to rant about the concept in SF/F of chopping complete stories into small parts. I felt the story was just about picking up steam when we ran out of book. since I've only got two books I'll have to see how I feel after the second one.
