A review by danielwestheide
Dead Lies Dreaming by Charles Stross

4.0

Apparently, it is possible to write an entertaining novel in the Laundry universe that isn't about the Laundry at all. "Dead Lies Dreaming" is a fascinating mash-up of X-Men, Mutant City Blues, Cory Doctorow's "Pirate Cinema", James Bond, heist stories, and Lovecraftian magic. In addition, it tackles topics like London's crazy real estate bubble. I really enjoyed it, and I'm looking forward to more books in this new series.
