Read Century Rain, but not 'Pushing Ice' :p:.
Preferred the Inhibitors Trilogy though - worth reading 'Chasm City' as well

Recently finishing (finally) watching "The Wire" has inspired me to go back & re-read David Simon's excellent non-fiction book "Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets" (which the excellent TV series "Homicide: Life on the Street" was based upon, & which also partly inspired "The Wire").
