Just so you know, it's a series (so when you get hooked into reading the whole thing...I guess you can come back and blame me...). There are sample chapters up on SM Stirling's website, too.
Also, I didn't think to mention, one of the secondary characters, the daughter of one of the main characters, is deaf. I probably forgot to mention it because it's such not a big deal -- they just speak in Sign (and then the little kids start learning Sign because she's the only teenager around so it's Really Cool to learn).
