Brilliant Comedy of Manners in an SF Setting

Williams has created a group of three brilliant comedies of manners. Drake Maijstral is an allowed burglar, an occupation sanctioned by the Khosali Empire, which has taken over the known universe. Maijstral's spectacular thefts take place in a highly mannered society where Elvis is a demigod, and the only real crime seems to be a lack of style. Thoroughly enjoyable.
