I adore the Benjamin January series! And yet I had never considered Okierete Onaodawan as a Ben fancast, but I am very pleased by this idea. In the interviews I've seen of him he shows yet a third personality (soft-spoken intellectual), which also seems to be a perfect fit.

I could happily go another decade without reading another book in which THE HUMAN SACRIFICE OF THE AZTECS!!!!!!! featured as a major plot device
This bothered me too. On the other hand (or so I tell myself), the two sources of information about the Aztecs in the book are 1) the homicidal crazy man obsessed with violent myths, and 2) the other homicidal man who is invested in enabling character #1. So I'm not sure we're meant to take either of them as an objective or even remotely accurate source. But it would have been nice if Hambly could have included someone with a differing viewpoint.
