I forgot to mention: Due to armor (that protect the wearer from fast moving projectiles) most of the action/battles are with swords and rapiers, which adds to the unique setting of the novel.
One critique is that Harness uses some data dumps to keep the plot and action moving at such a fast pace.
This one was around 200 pages.
It looks like ebook copies are available everywhere for $1.99
Also, any recommendations for more Charles L. Harness works?
