The merchant princes

Just finished reading the 4 books, it is Science Fiction, but with a nice twist and not to technical or outworldish. Nice, but there seems to be a real end missing.

The first book -The Family Trade - really got me, nice plot, not to fantastic, tense, clean cut. And I always loved female main characters like lady detectives, and so Miriam is a perfect fit. The story develops nice, and The Hidden Family is pretty good too. With Clan Corporate it is getting less interesting a bit, Charles Stross seems to run out of ideas, and this is definitely the case with the last book, the Merchant War.

All in all a good series, I enjoyed reading quite some.
