I agree with Mr. Berro. PoC reminded me of the Cugel books and the term 'picaresque' bubbled up from submerged memories of academia. On the whole, its a good read; better than Night Lamp, which I thought actually suffered from a weak and forced plot, and certainly Throy with its rushed, disjointed ending that did a disservice to the whole of the Cadwal Chronicles.
