Magic, science, time travel and work politics with a sense of wit thrown in what is not to like.
I found this book in a used bookstore never having heard of it, & I am happy I decided to read it. I enjoyed the story & am looking forward to reading the sequel.
That being said, it might not be for those who do not enjoy longer books or do not want to deal with office politics in a book. While I liked how it was woven into the book in a realistic manner, I could see where if you have either never had to deal with this aspect of the world or just really want to get away from it in a book that it might turn you off of this book.
If none of this turns you off, give it a read. This is a fun adventurous time.
