Miriam Beckstein is a young, hip, business journalist in Boston. She discovered in The Family Trade and The Hidden Family that her family came from an alternate reality, that she was very well-connected, and that her family was too much like the mafia for comfort. She found herself caught in a family trap in The Clan Corporate and betrothed to a brain-damaged prince, and then all hell broke loose. Now, in The Merchants' War, Miriam has escaped to yet another world and remains in hiding from both the Clan and their opponents.

The Merchants War
Revisado: 08-10-22
Macroeconomics, military tactics, science fiction, fantasy, and a solid plot full of intrigue.
The narrator has it all nailed down for a full range of voices, effortless shifts between the US, New Britain, and the Grühnmarkt, and man…it’s just a great dang book.
Take the Superman movies from the 1980’s or so and compare them to the current Marvel releases (yeah yeah…DC vs Marvel…blah blah blah, shut up nerds) and that’s any SciFi book you’ll find now compared to the Merchant Princes series. Unequivocally, Charles Stross is going to be hailed as the turn-of-the-century Asimov, or the J.K. Rowling of the new blended genre he has tapped here (minus the misogyny inherent in Asimov and JK’s transphobic rhetoric as of late).
Credit worth spending and credit where due.
