'Tis the Season! I've posted about this book before, it's the book that moved me from "she's alright" to "I MUST BUY ALL HER BOOKS"

Just read A Murder of Mages by @mrmaresca.com and it has cured my reading slump! An adventure that has just enough weight to it, a fascinating world, and complex characters. I'm now waiting impatiently for the library to send me ALL THE OTHER BOOKS.
