It was the first ebook I bought, because I'd been hearing so much pre-release buzz, and had been rather impressed by some of her blog posts during Racefail last year. And I was not disappointed!<br /><br />I happened to come across a listing for <i>Under Heaven</i> the day before you posted this! Wasn't sure about it, but your review is encouraging. Annoyed that it's harder to find in electronic format, though.
