Paging All Bookworms Book Challenge

My husband started this easy challenge on a Shelfari group. Our new challenge is one everyone can participate in-seeing how many pages you can read in 2010. Roger made a challenge page on Shelfari for the challenge if you want to join. We'd love to have you join in on the fun.

Synopsis:

A quest for the Unholy Grail-the goblet from which Judas drank at the Last Supper-takes private eye John Taylor deep into the secret, magical heart of London...called the Nightside.

My Review:

I tried reading this book about a year ago and stopped about twenty pages in. At the time the author's repeated "I'm John Taylor, I find things" statements were just too hokey and got on my nerves. Well, I hope to read and get rid of many books this year so I thought "I'll try it one last time and if it still sucks, out it, and the rest of the series goes (my husband loves this series and has read almost all of them).

Well, I'm glad I tried this book a second time, as it was very fast and enjoyable. Green excels at world building. Great urban fantasy- 4 stars
