WebMage
I've just finished WebMage, by Kelly McCullough , and it was a lot of fun. The book is based on a world where magic was updated from its early, less reliable beginnings to a new stage that involves computers, a magical web, and the like.
There are many elements of traditional mythology woven in, such as the Fates, the Furies, Fairies' Rings, the Titans, etc.
It was quite satisfying, and if I could, I'd be reading the sequels. However, eReader/Fictionwise started (presumably due to publisher pressure) to start restricting sales to Brazil a couple of months ago. Since then, I've been unable to buy something like 10 e-books - after I had selected and started the purchase process.
Of course, anyone that was trying to buy an e-book is much less likely to want to buy the paper version, specially from aboard - which considerably adds to the price. Which ends up making the sole reasonable option to those users to use a P2P service.
Truly genius work by those publishers and authors...
