A review by nigellicus
The Reapers by John Connolly

adventurous dark mysterious tense

5.0

It's the Angel and Louis show, a slam bang thriller with none of that weird guff, perhaps just to show Connolly can do it when he wants to, talented swine. Again, the focus on character and setting is increasingly what makes this series work without flagging or getting jaded. Connolly really puts the work in for even the relatively minor characters as he unwinds the plot and the bodies start to fall.
