Second this suggestion. I'd like to add that the protagonist is a pretty interesting character (and often quite amusing as well). Early in the first book one of the supporting characters observes to him that "So-and-so warned me that if I looked up 'attitude' in the encyclopedia I'd find your picture" -- which observation captures quite a bit about him in one pithy thought.
