    I think katamaster meant to say (Dance of Death), not Game of Death. The book that got me started was Relic, and I have since read all the following books. And just finished The Wheel of Darkness. As with all the books, with a few exceptions, it started out slowly, but builds up to a truely gripping story. One that, once you get to the good stuff, you just can't put it down.
    I have found these two authors to be an excellent match, and they are impressive considering they live on different ends of the continent.

    Interesting ending, loved the twist and the cliff hanger at the end.
