Great if you have an interest in the early history of Chicago and the first world's fair -- murder added intrigue and was well done but found the story somewhat unnerving and difficult to read.

Great book of short stories. One of them introduces you to the detective in Sacred Games.

Mingling of fantasy and reality, sometimes hard to follow, but always with visual interest.

Fascinating history of the tulip -- from the Ottoman Empire to Holland and back. Greed is amazing. The book also touches on a couple other greed induced manias surrounding flowers. Who knew?
