Gah, just re-read Fool and Serpent earlier this year, now kinda want to crack them open again. Or maybe I should pay my regular respects to Biff and Josh since Josh's birthday is coming up.

I just ordered the three novels in the series. How can they not be great reads, based on the plot summarized in the above blurb? Yay!!!

Now do it with Caravaggio. The story almost writes itself! Murder, mayhem, Knights of Malta, mysterious Naples, fuckery with women (and men?)
