DNF. The number of missing words, typos, and grammatical errors became too distracting and annoying about halfway through the book (Kindle edition - maybe the print edition is different in that regard?).
I also didn't really care much about the main characters over the course of the story. Cade was kind of nice, but a bit too heroic (yes, there is such a thing for me :p). Annie was off to a good start, but the massive chip on her shoulder got old rather quickly.
What I really did like was the supporting cast of characters and a whole lot of little things (the betting pools, Pride & Prejudice, Justin...)

I'll admit, this is not my favourite book in the Vlad Taltos series, but - contrary to many other readers - I do not mind the clash of the writing styles of the Vlad series and the Khaavren romances.
Long-winded historian Paarfi can get on your nerves quickly, but a) he is only recounting part of the book (so you don't have to wade through hundreds of pages like in the Khaavren romances) and b) it's quite funny to see the usually rather laconic Vlad described in Paarfi's flowery manner.
It was also nice to see many familiar characters again (Pel has always been a favourite of mine, as has Kragar).
I would not recommend reading Tiassa if you haven't read and liked at least one of the earlier Taltos books as well as the Khaavren romances. You probably need to be quite familiar with the world and the main …

You probably need to be quite familiar with the world and the main characters, there is not much in the way of introduction or explanation given in this book.
