Sounds like the Tim Powers novel. Powers is awesome if you like fantasy with a heavy twist of weird. I prefer his earlier books like the Anubis Gates and On Stranger Tides (a heavy influence on the Pirates of the Caribbean series, in fact Disney bought the film rights so the fourth film can steal more directly

) but Last Call is pretty good too.
