To find out why he must wield the sword, John consults the Last Defenders of Camelot, a group of knights who dwell in a place that some find more frightening than the Nightside. London Proper.

Entertaining. Funniest book in the series yet. ( )
  ElentarriLT | Mar 24, 2020 |
As if John Taylor hasn't gone through enough with the Angel War and Lilith War, he now has an Elf civil war looming that can wipe out not only the Nightside but all humanity on Earth. Not only that, but one of the most powerful artifacts ever created, Excalibur, just ended up on his front step with no explanation. Another quick, entertaining read in the Nightside series. Pretty much more of the same. My only concern is if there is only one more book left in the series, then this book doesn't do a very good setup for it. Still, it's a very good read. ( )

I love these books because they are a fun, quick read that is full of action and humor. I read them in between heavier books or just when I need a break from the other books I'm reading. In this one, the legendary Excalibur has come to the Nightside in a plain brown postage wrapper straight to John Taylor. It seems it has a "Destiny" for him that he just can't refuse and it includes elf battles and knights in shining armor.

I felt this was one of the stronger Nightside books. There is a definite formula to these books, and it can get tedious if you read them all back to back. It's not the best book ever, but if you are looking for something light to read this series is a winner.

Another fun adventure in the Nightside (and beyond!) With some heavy Arthurian plot-points!

I was consistently distracted and bored to tears with this one. Now don't get me wrong this series is fantastic in an uber sick way. This installment seemed forced yet necessary for the continuing plot. I was fairly amused with the door mouse in this story. I'm happy that his character appeared in the series again.
I am starting to miss John Taylor taking on alternating partners; instead he's taking Suzy Shooter along for most of his cases. One thing that I certainly was expecting that John was going to take on Walker's position. It seems that it was one of those moments where Karma came back to bite him in the butt.
Have fun reading!
Cheers Pretties! ( )

Oddly enough, the anticipated showdown fizzles.

I stood in my kitchen, already so tired and used up I would have lain down in a coffin if that was all that was available... and considered the brown-papered parcel on the table before me.
