    Very nice so far, after just two installments. A film-noir-style private eye tries to solve a murder on a spaceship, surrounded by dames and wiseguys, etc. etc. The prose style is appropriately over the top.

    Although WE KNOW WHAT A SLIDE RULE IS :) or maybe the younger waves don't, these days.
