Mostly enjoy techno-thrillers and science fiction, but I also enjoy fantasy, graphic novels, biographies, and non-fiction. I've recently rediscovered the joy of reading physical books and so I figured it was high time that I set up an account over here. Some of my favorite authors are William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, Dan Simmons, Neil Gaiman, Martha Wells, Bill Bryson, Cory Doctorow, and John Scalzi.

The moment I discovered the book on the shelf, I couldn't put it down and tore through it like a starving man at a buffet table. If you're a fan of *Deadly Class* like I am, then this book belongs on your bookshelf! The dark humor that clearly indicates that this is just a book of fantasy is well-timed and lighthearted without being too overbearing. I think many people have secretly thought about what it might be like to give their horrible bosses their final desserts and Holmes indulges those fantasies while still managing to drive home the point that even horrible bosses are people too and are they really, *really* deserving of murder?
I also really enjoyed the production values of the book itself, from the included visual aids to the incorporation of various media styles used to convey the information - journals, reports, emails, etc. It excellently described an exclusive and completely hidden "tradesman's institute" so well that I found myself wishing that such an exclusive campus existed and that I could somehow go and visit.
I am anxiously awaiting Holmes' second book in the series, *Murder Your Mate*, as I am looking forward to how he intends to cover *that* particular topic in the same handle-with-acerbic-care sort of way.
