Haute Cuisine with a twist

Synopsis: The gang at Sin du Jour catering has been contracted for a really, really big job: the wedding of the Goblin King's son and his fiancée. And the challenge is immense: prepare pairs of numerous courses, in identical-looking forms, to suit both goblin and human gastronomics. But of course, no catering plan survives contact with the diners... the big question is whether the Sin du Jour crew will survive the ensuing catastrophe--and if they do, how will they escape the Goblin King's wrath?

What I thought: I found the first entry in this series, last year's Envy of Angels, to be an unexpected, clever, slyly witty delight. This is a worthy follow-up--and the author manages to weave his supernatural worldbuilding in with the real world so deftly that the reader can almost believe it's all really true.
