The Twilight Watch by Sergei Lukyanenko
5.0
I liked the first two books, I loved this one.
Anton Gorodetsky really comes into his own as a character here. A supernatural Columbo, bumbling through the mysteries and intrigues, trying to puzzle things out, going down the wrong paths, but always finding his way to the solution in the nick of time and making everything right.
The plot, divided into stories as always, focuses on the possibility of human beings turning into Others and the impact this would have on the battle between the watches. We finally see Kostya, Anton's vampire neighbor from his human life, come into the game and face down on Anton, making him question his judgements about vampires.
The stories are gripping and amusing and moving and I can't wait to read the final chapter of the series.
