I *loved* this series. I burned out on fantasy after one too many terrible books, but these are smart, funny, and ridiculously entertaining.

I've seen your books all around the place, but didn't know if it was worth taking the chance. If I'd know about Death and the knife and just the latest cover in general I would have been all over the series sooner. Thanks! Well consider me sold.
