Sharper Than a Serpent's Tooth by Simon R. Green
4.0
So far I've really enjoyed this series.
It's not to everyone's taste, fair dos.
It also gets a lot of comparison to the Dresden Files. So far I'll take Nightside and John Taylor over Harry Dresden his Files any day.
For me, Nightside is gloriously over the top and doesn't take itself seriously.
The main character is a bit of a bastard (but not nearly as much of one as he'd like to be) and he makes no bones about it. It's quite a brutal but unsentimental, rip roaring, leave your brain at the door pulp fantasy.
I love the world building and the characters and I have no problem suspending my disbelief and slipping into Nightside.
Now that Lilith has been dealt with, I'm really interested to see where the stories go next and if they continue to hold my interest.
