Lukyanenko, Sergei -- Night Watch
Urban fantasy from Moscow, where the natural evolution of
light-vs-dark is the business-as-usual milieu of
barely-distinguishable corrupt government and crime mob. Light
magicians and sorcerers are bogged down in a permanent
standoff-and-treaty with Dark vampires and witches -- with countless
deals, alliances, rivalries, and friendships running across the line,
at every level from the petty to the top. Charming and tricksy. Also
made a great movie.
