The Family Trade by Charles StrossMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
After a long time - maybe the first time - there's a book with a protagonist who gets shown magic and then proceeds to test it starting with a control, observations, recordings, and a map. Then finds out how it works. Then figures out how people make money off it, in the most logical way. Then uses her real-world education and knowledge to figure out how to make even more money off it... it was hilariously awesome. And sharp, snappy, and edge-of-the-seat gripping.
Would I read the next one? I already did!
