The writing can be a bit cheesy and redundant, but the plot is intriguing and the characters are fascinating. The audio versions are tricky to track down, but worth it.

Curious read, with some advances in an interesting over-arching plot, but ultimately similar to the previous three. I enjoyed it, but I need a break from this series now.

We finally learn something about the origins of the Nightside and who John Taylor's mother is, neither news is comforting, however.

Beginning to get some answers which is nice but I'm also finding these books a little repetitive. Will probably finish the series because I'm a completionist and they're very quick and easy but I do hope he shakes things up a bit.

Wow! This series really turned a corner for me with this book. A lot of the details that are teased in the first few books are brought together, and the metaplot really comes to full-steam. Plus there are some awesome new characters in this one.

I liked this a little more than the last one. I can tell that this is a series that is going to be all over the place as far as how well I liked the story. They are super fast reads though, so until they stink up the barn, I will continue.

خب، این آخرین قسمتی بود که از این مجموعه میخونم و احتمالا آخرین کتابی که از این نویسنده.
این نویسنده عادت خیلی بدی به اغراق داره، همش این قوی ترینه و حرف نداره بعد دوباره دو صفحه میری جلوتر میگه این قوی ترینه، انگار خودش هم نمیدونه با خودش چند چنده، نه فقط تو این ۴ جلدی که از نایت ساید خوندم بلکه تو دو مجموعه دیگش یعنی شکارچی اشباح و مردی با طوق طلا هم اینو دیدم.
بعد از یه مدت خیلی لوس میشه که همش بهت بگن مرلین قویه، بعد بگن نه خدای خودکشی قدی ترینه، نه پادشاه خار ها قوی ترینه؛ و حقیقتا همشونم با یکی دوتا حرکت ساده میوفتن زمین!
متاسفم سایمون آر گرین، ولی خیلی حوصله سر بره قلمت چون خودت تو صفحه بعد حرفایی که یه صفحه قبل زدی رو نقض میکنی
No Offense! ;)
