A very nice close to the mini-arc with John's mother, Lilith. Green seems to be very good at wrapping up each book in this series. I have to admit I'm sad to see a few characters dead...at least for now. As they say, you can never be too sure with the Nightside.

Of course, with the wrap up comes the urge to get the next book to find out what is in store for John now that his possibly greatest threat is out of the way. I mean, really, who or what could be worse than Lilith?

As usual with this series, Green keeps you guessing as to how things will turn out. There are unexpected saves, unexpected turns, and just unexpected appearances all over the place and I love it.

It wasn't the strongest of the series so far, which was rather surprising given that the arc with his mother was apparently concluded.

It's kind of cute watching the way John and Suzi are slowly moving forward, too. I did like meeting John's father and seeing different sides to recurring characters.

Still in all, I have come to enjoy these books and am looking forward to starting Hell to Pay.

The thrilling conclusion to the Lilith War storyline. This book is absolute mayhem. Lilith's invasion of the Nightside causes so much death and destruction. Her power is truly without equal.

I thought the ending was nicely done. I didn't feel cheated in the lease bit.
