This was a wonderful read of a different US, told in almost a noir style, by a semi-pro baseball player. I love everything about this book. The baseball is real and interesting enough, without excruciating (to some) details. There are some crumbs of real players in there that are fun to pull out. The style is engaging, and the fantasy touches are light and, for the most part, amusing.
Since there are a ton of SF fans who are also baseball fans, there is an audience, and The House of Daniel plays to it splendidly. Thanks Harry!
