Im familiar with Ms. Lafferty's fiction and believe this is her best work to date. The plot was engaging, her style clear and direct, the characters enigmatic, and the entire novel a delight. It's one of the most enjoyable stories I've read, and I'm sure I'll read it many more times. Readers with children should be aware this novel does contain some violence and mild profanity.

Overview
Marco is a failed graphic artist and writer figuring he's at the end of his career when his ship comes in. The aliens that run the Moon (now nicknamed "Mollywood") want him and his work, and will pay well to get it. But when Marco meets an octogenarian lunar gladiator called The Red Granny, he learns there's a darker side to patronage, and he's not sure he wants in. But it may be too late.
