Not a story I care much about. There were too many groups involved from this world and the next and some in between. The character of mother (Webb's wife) and Philip was not required.
The ending seemed rushed. I am not too keen on reading other John Connolly books

Aku suka bagaimana novel ini ditutup dengan Angel yang memutuskan untuk HIDUP di setiap detik yang masih dia miliki:
"Semua orang mati. Semua orang.
Tapi aku tidak.
Tidak hari ini."

I'm so sad I've caught up with this whole series... I cannot wait for another one. As always with this series: fast-paced, intricate web of stories, fabulous characters. A total page turner!

Rasanya ceritanya terlalu melebar kemana-mana. Beberapa bagian terasa kurang connect dengan cerita, bagian akhirnya pun terkesan berdiri sendiri-sendiri.

Excellent entry in the series, drawing on the world of Charlie Parker and new puzzles.

This series just keeps getting better and better. There is always a supernatural twist to these books and this one is no exception. While tracking down private eye Jaycob Eklund Charlie finds himself in the crosshairs of the Brethren. With the help of his trusted psychopath friends, Louis and Angel Charlie embarks on trying to track down the missing PI who seems to have stumbled upon the origins of the group known as the Brethren. Also tracking them is the Collector whose Hollow Men scare the Brethren.

Twisted, terrifying and magical A Game of Ghosts doesn't disappoint but if you haven't read any other books in this series you may want to skip this until you have started more toward the beginning, you will probably be left confused and lost if you start with this installment.
