I loved the 3 Mayfair books. In addition to the Talamasca, the Taltos history/mythology was, in my opinion, done very well. Also, some of the Mayfair characters that ultimately did the worse deeds were truly tragic and fallible, unlike some of the Vampire characters where I thought, "You're just a ass and I can't feel sorry for you." I literally cried for Lasher more than once, despite how screwed up the whole situation was.

Ooh, now I'm wanting to read those three again. And soon.
