Something from the Nightside by Simon R. Green
1.0
I tried really, really hard to like it. Simplistic plot, lack of character development, constant use of horrible monologues. Unlikely behavior from established characters. Honestly, it reminded me a lot of the stories that kids make up and tell each other when they're young.
It has a lot of interesting elements. The idea of Nightside is interesting, so are a lot of elements. But overall it felt like something Jim Butcher would have written when he was 8. I'll give something Green writes a few years down the road a chance. But he has a long way to go as an author.
