Now see, this is how you do a spin off. Kremlin Games is clearly outside the main storyline of the Ring of Fire and includes only small cameos of established characters. But the new characters are appealing and do interesting, important things. Slice of life stuff works in short stories for the Grantville Gazette, but a novel demands more and this one delivers, unlike some others I could mention. It's clearly the first book of a new line set in Russia and I find myself actually looking forward to the next one.

Felt both rushed *and* incomplete: leaves me wanting more and unsatisfied — I'd wait until you've got the sequel in hand. All-in-all, I continue to really enjoy the Ring of Fire books.
