#50 Something from the Nightside by Simon R. Green

I have heard good things about the series so I thought I would give it a whirl. IT was ok, I'm not sure if it was because it was the first book and there was a lot of setup and back story for the main character or that it just didn't appeal to me. I'll give the series one more shot I did like how it was set up very 40's style mystery with a rich dame and a detective down on his luck but the story certainly stretched that framework.

I find it to be entertaining fluff, for the most part.

I can't pinpoint what didn't make me really take to the book which is why I'll read the second one. Who knows since I was reading it on a long plane flight it could have been me as well.
