I think I have had enough of Tim Powers after reading The Anubis Gates.
It began brilliantly and until we ended up in the 17th century, I still
thought it would continue in a similar way but there was far too much
nonsensical physical and magical violence that was gratuitous and
fortuitous being unnecessary for plot nor character attributes.

The Stress Of Her Regard does at least get the messiest piece of
violence out of the way in the opening pages...
