Well, dammit. I was told years ago that I NEEDED to read these books, and then I went and forgot. Now the TBR is 3 more high. Thanks! *sarcastic face dissolves into book-lovin grin*

Huh, I’ll have to move this up on my TBR list. I have the first book sitting in my pile of books.

““plucky orphan learns magic, becomes idiotic megalomaniac, is saved by djinni, like, a million times.””

HA! So true! Although I think it should end with “…times, while being verbally skewered by a being who has had millennia to hone his sarcastic snark.”

I listened to these on audiobook, and enjoyed the heck out of ‘em.

Ooooh — sound neat! I was already interested in checking out his series ’cause he was one of the NaNoWriMo pep talk writers this year.

Seriously, it’s a fantastic series: smart, thoughtful, and hilarious.
