Sharper Than a Serpent's Tooth by Simon R. Green
4.0
And finally, the tale ends.
In this larger than epic epic finale, we finally see Lilith in all her true terrible glory. The Nightside becomes a battlefield as Lilith decides the only way to go ahead, is to simply wipe it all out and start again.
The battle was pretty gruesome and you see a lot of characters and die self-prophecies come true and Simon Green wasn't shy about turning his world into a battleground and you can't help but wonder if there really is a way out of all of this.
In the end, I thought the conclusion was a little strange, and perhaps a bit weak. I initially rated the novel a 5, but that was right after I'd just read it and would adjust it down to a 4 now.
