The Merchants' War
(View larger)

I just finished the fifth book of Charles Stross’s Merchant Princes series. (The link is the the first book. The picture is of the fourth book. All of them end in cliff hangers, including the fifth book. The sixth book isn’t written yet.) I like them because they feel like historical fiction, science fiction and kick ass Joss-Whedon-style strong, interesting female protagonist fiction rolled into one.

Paul Krugman calls themĀ economic science fiction.
