This continues to be my current favorite urban fantasy series - the series which reminds me of why I ever liked urban fantasy.
I can write little about the sequels without spoiling a major plot development at the end of the first. They're both very good, but I liked Whispers Underground better because the mystery (while somewhat incomprehensible) was less obvious, but mostly because of the return of a certain favorite character.
Highly recommended. Highly, highly recommended. Great characterization, great atmosphere, witty and fun, and surprisingly moving in a low-key way.
Start with the first one, Midnight Riot. Though the individual stories stand on their own, they must be read in sequence because of a certain favorite character's plotline.
