Wow, he's up to eleven [insert Spinal Tap joke here] already. I've yet to read the more recent ones, and am still very much hoping to acquire more of the series at some point.

Though the jumps between present and past were a little disturbing, since the ones set earlier in his life were marvellous adventures and spirited hijinx, and the latter ones are angst and inexorable crumbling and disturbing hints at the past. Still, it was very effective - I'm utterly hooks, and intrigued as to where he's going with it all.

Meanwhile, now I'm hungry for both the books and the requisite find dining experience recommended as an accompaniment. *grin*
