我也想到了 Max Gladstone 的《Craft Sequence》系列小说，里面带有一些中美洲文明色彩，背景设定在一个“律师驾驭闪电、灵魂充当通货、陨落神明的残骸驱动着城市运转”的世界。强烈推荐。
I'm also reminded of Max Gladstone's "Craft Sequence" novels, which have some meso-american themes in a universe where "lawyers ride lightning bolts, souls are currency, and cities are powered by the remains of fallen gods". Highly recommended.
……Michael Livingston 的《Shards of Heaven》——以奥古斯都·凯撒时代为背景的绝妙历史奇幻小说；Jy Yang 的《The Red Threads of Fortune》/《The Black Tides of Heaven》——一对配套的中篇！Max Gladstone 的《The Craft Sequence》——法律即魔法！写得极好；Robin Hobb 的《刺客学徒》（Assassin's Apprentice，出自《刺客正传》）——我最喜欢的系列之一……我都看哭了！Lara Elena Donnelly 的《Amberlough》……

现在我特别希望 Max Gladstone 能在他下一本《Craft Sequence》里写写风险投资（VC）。
Now I find myself wishing Max Gladstone would feature venture capitalism in his next Craft Sequence book.
