Description
Welcome to the Nightside. For those foolish enough to seek it out, it’s literal tourist trap, populated by beings, human and otherwise, who have never seen the sun rise. A place where your dreams can come true—as long as your nightmares don’t get you first.
My name is John Taylor. I’m a PI with a special talent for finding lost things. I’m also the reluctant owner of a very special—and dangerous—weapon: Excalibur, the legendary sword (which isn’t what you think it is, and never was). Excalibur chose me, and to find out why, I’ll have to consult the last defenders of Camelot, a group of knights who dwell in a place that some find more frightening than the Nightside.
London Proper. It’s been years since I’ve been back—and there are good reasons for that…
Reviews
Book itself is good, but the right side of each page has a bit missing
2By hamsmackerMy complaint is that it appears the book was scanned or something, but the right edge of the text is missing. Some lines are ok and easy to read but other lines make you 'guess' what the last character is. The book itself is good so far. Very typical attitude and manner as the other books.Boring and derivative
2By DhdkscidjfiksjHow anyone can rate this over 3 stars is beyond me and I *like* cheesy fantasy. It's not that it's terribly written, it's that it's totally unoriginal. Its an attempt to channel Glen Cook, Terry Pratchet, Jim Butcher, and all of their contemporaries. It comes off as having stolen a bit from all of them and throwing it thoughtlessly into a soup. The result is almost a mockery. I had to put it down. Move along. Nothing to see here.Worth every penny!
