Just Another Judgement Day Nightside Book 9 Simon R Green 9780441016747 Books

I just finished reading Simon Green's "Just Another Judgement Day", the ninth installment in his highly-popular Nightside urban fantasy series. I completely enjoyed this novel, and found the storyline to be both compelling and highly-informative concerning the burgeoning new group of Nightside powerbrokers, referred to as the Authorities, who have replaced their former holders as the guiding management for the Nightside. And yet, there's still even more to this storyline, such as the evolving relationship between Suzie Shooter and our enigmatic hero, John Taylor. Finally, the readers gain additional insight into the personal relationship between John Taylor and Walker, the Nightside's chief enforcer and oft-quasi-adversary to John.
*Whew*
Merely alluding to the additional quality content in this novel is a storyline in and of itself!
Of course, Just Another Judgement Day follows a highly engaging storyline thread involving God's arm of justice, the Walking Man, making an ominous appearance in the Nightside on his perpetual mission to smite evil-doers. However, the reader quickly discovers that, while feared and nearly invincible, the mysterious Walking Man harbors a dark agenda, key motivations, and compelling background all his own, which brings life to what may seem a straightforward mission. As is often the case, John Taylor is called upon by the new Authorities to stop the Walking Man before he wreaks havoc in the Nightside. Oh, and readers will be treated to a remarkable character, Chandra Singh, who enriches the storyline in his own unique and interesting manner.
All in all, this novel was simply amazing in its own right, as well as thoroughly satisfying at so many levels: excellent character development, compelling arc of impending threat, and juicy tidbits and insights into characters that we have all grown to love in the Nightside. This novel gets five stars, and A-plus, and my urgent recommendation to "read it now!"
Wow!

Just Another Judgement Day Nightside Book 9 Simon R Green 9780441016747 Books Reviews

The Walking Wrath of God's bad anywhere, but when it comes to the Nightside, an alternate London where it's always 300 AM on the bad side of town, the inhabitants are seriously worried.

The Walking Man's got God on his side and he's practically invincible. His mission to destroy evil. And everyone knows what the Nightside is made up of.

So, they're paying John Taylor, PI, to find a way to stop the Walking Man. After all, he's stopped his mother.

I've enjoyed the previous eight installments of this series and this one is, in my humble opinion, one of the best so far. The tension's tight, you could mine the irony.

This story mostly stands on its own, but if you like dark chocolate detective fantasy, you may want to consider picking up the other eight Nightside stories. John Taylor does not disappoint and that's why he gets the big jobs.

Rebecca Kyle, March 2009
This is a review on the Nightside series up until this book.
After finishing up Jim Butcher's Dresden files,I decided to while away the time by reading up on this series, and so far it has not be disappointing. It is not as great as Dresden's, but it does has its funny moments, good actions, and interesting characters.
Two things keep annoying me though. One is the author's limited vocabulary when it comes to describing John Taylor's gift. He always, ALWAYS use "......and it is the easiest thing in the world to..".I mean, there must be some other ways and words to describe it. The constant use of the same sentence irritates me no ends.
The second thing will be the author's tendency to come out with all kinds of characters that he will kill off in the next page. I mean, some authors will do that too, but they won't spend half a page describing him/her, then kill it off without a blink. What's the point of that? The only reason I can think of is that it is a way to fill the gaps between the actions and storylines and it is not becoming.
Overall, I like it, that's why I bought the whole series ( until A Hard Day's Knight ), but I do hope certain things can be improved.
First Sentence In the Nightside, that sour secret hidden heart of London, it's always three o'clock in the morning and the dawn never comes.

Nightside has gone through changes in power and there is now a new group of Authorities. There is also a new threat. PI Jack Taylor is hired by Walker, Taylor's friend and enemy, to deal with this new threat. The Walking Man, God's own enforcer, has come to Nightside to destroy evil. Taylor has to find the answer to what will destroy the Walking Man.

This book is definitely not for anyone who is squeamish. The violence is graphic and brutal. Yet the author's creative always amazes me and the story always draws me in.

There is a slightly more series tone to this book with the question of man justifying their actions as being God's will. The book also takes on the topic of our obsession for looking young and brings it to horrific results. I was struck by the observation regarding weapons "Every gun, every sword, maybe every bomb, too....These are simply instruments of death. Means to murder." Green's trademark humor is still in evidence with a car-eating tunnel.

There is so development of the characters relationships, both between Taylor and Walker and, most significantly, between Taylor and Suzie Shooter. Taylor is a fascinating character in that he is a moral man living in an immoral environment yet considers himself one of the monsters. Suzie is highly damaged yet she loves John and is overcoming a barrier in her relationship to him.

Green somewhat falls into the "guilty pleasure" category for me. I'm not quite certain as to why I like these books so much, but the underlying theme stays with me and I always look forward to the next book.
