Finished Throne of Jade this afternoon. I really enjoyed it, although the sailor's cussing did get out of hand once. It was a one time thing, that didn't feel out of place at all in the setting, but if the later books get worse than I'll stop reading the series.
I picked up The Dirty Streets of Heaven by Tad Williams at the library the other day. I've tried several of Tad's series, and aside from Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn I haven't come close to even finishing one. I did love that trilogy, but I don't have high expectations for Bobby Dollar.
