review 1: It seems that Simon R Green has actually run out of ideas for this novel as he is now recycling bad guys. This novel deals briefly with the changes in the nightside and the new authorities. It is mainly about a man called Walker who is the wrathful agent of god who is put on earth to punish those unworthy. Naturally he has left his morality behind some time ago and now John has to stand up to him and put him back in his place. Now if you think this is familiar then you are right, this book was basically an extension on the misguided character at the end of the last novel who thought that he was gods wrathful agent upon earth. It seems as though Simon R Green liked the idea and decided to expand upon it even though in doing so he didn't add anything too it. This novel was o... morence again just a filler novel to bulk out the series until its inevitable end. The one exciting moment I found in this book was when it became clear that John had nothing blocking his gift for the first time in 9 books. I thought finally we can see the hero at his best and firing on all cylinders. Unfortunately however, now that he could use his gift he seemed to have decided that he didn't want to use it after all. All things considered, another unimaginative and repetitive outing for John Taylor and the nightside. I am far too invested in this series at this point to stop reading but I am really looking forward to it being finished.
review 2: This one was enjoyable.First time we get to see John's house, and lo he has moved in with Suzy. Still don't really like her.It was a really interesting "who am I and how far am I willing to go" book for John Taylor.Yes the beginning was full of the usual copied and pasted catch phrases that all the other books have, and that is still annoying.There were new characters in this one, and we got to see the Adventurer's Club, which I rather liked. We didn't end up going to all the same locations like we normally do. It was refreshingly different.Suzy had a bit of a healing, which will be interesting to see just how much she's been healed. less

I've held off on giving any of the Nightside books 5 stars, but this one earned it. What a villain!

The ending was a little expected, but overall good story. Reopened some questions...
