I am sure about that. Jim characters are awesome. That is irrelevant for my feeling about the name.

Actually, I was going to say that I felt the same way (and ditto when trying to listen to Jim read the sample chapters a while back).  I'm not sure where this is coming from, since I would have expected to be really hyped for the new series.

I think it's a combination of feeling a little overwhelmed by all the new terminology all at once and the oblique "Victorian" speaking style.  I get that it places us in the action all at once and helps give that steampunk flavor, but I know that I'm going to have to go back and read the first chapters again once I get ~halfway into the book so I can understand what everything meant.  It just feels like a bit too much work to figure out everything right now.
