I really enjoyed this book. If you haven't read the series yet, I highly recommend starting at the beginning. Our man John Taylor is on the cusp of his wedding. He asks his secretary Cathy to find one more private investigator job for him to do, something that can be finished in one night. What is supposed to be a straightforward "find this" job, leads to the King of Skin's murder, a mysterious message "...let the sun shine in.", and a horrible misunderstanding that has Taylor running for his life.I loved this one for the variety and how seamlessly the separate stories seemed to flow together, with John's pending wedding to Suzie flowing underneath all. The usual Gods and Major Players make an appearance, Taylor teams up with Julian Advent (the two characters really do balance each other well), and we get the usual trip through Nightside and some cool new place. This time it was Green Henge, Nightsides version of Stone Henge. Nice twist, here. All my favorite characters made an appearance - Julian Advent, Eddie the Punk God of the Straight Razor, Dead Boy, the whole Oblivion Clan including Hadleigh. I'd like to see more of Hadleigh in future books, actually. Highly Recommended. When John Taylor, the Private Investigator with a supernatural ability to find things, decides to marry Shotgun Suzie, he goes out for one last bachelor fling on the night before. That's traditional. Having to save the World (yet again) and have all your friends trying to kill you because you're suddenly and unexpectedly a murderer is not quite so traditional. Except, perhaps, here. Business as usual in the Nightside, as they say.This book was a lot of fun. I thought a few things ended a bit too conveniently, in a couple of cases-- can't say more without spoilers. But this is the end of the series, so a few things need wrapping up. I understand Mr. Green has decided there won't be any more Nightside novels based on John Taylor. I think this is a wise decision. Taylor has gotten to the point he is almost too powerful to be an interesting character. He has grown. It was fun to see him grow. Time, perhaps, to move on to other characters. It is said you should leave the stage while the audience still wants more, and now we see the famous white trenchcoat heading for the wings as the crowd applauds. Well done, Mr. Green.
