21. Simon R. Green Drinking Midnight Wine Reviewed By Rick Kleffel simon R. green has delivered a slippery novel that will appeal to fans of both genres, and a much wider reading audience as well. Yes, the plot sounds like http://trashotron.com/agony/reviews/green-midnight_wine.htm

Agony Column Home Agony Column Review Archive Drinking Midnight Wine Simon R. Green Roc / Penguin Putnam US Trade Paperback ISBN 0-451-45867-2 Publication Date: 02-2002 290 Pages; $14.00 Date Reviewed: 05-22-02 REFERENCES COLUMNS Horror Fantasy I must admit, I had to have this novel pointed out to me by two friends. But they were trustworthy and deserving of trust. 'Drinking Midnight Wine' starts out as Toby Dexter, a bookstore slacker, is riding the bus home for the umpteenth time. The woman he's been fascinated with on most of those bus rides gets off the bus in the rain. Toby follows her, even when she opens a door in a wall where no door has ever been before. He finds himself in Mysterie, a sort of magical overlay on our reality. In Mysterie, one finds all the fairy tale creatures, the monsters, demons and gods rubbing shoulders with the hoi polloi. Events in Mysterie and our world Veritie influence one another and certain residents can cross back and forth. Something is afoot in both worlds, and it comes as no surprise to the reader that Toby is the crux of these events. What follows is an enjoyable horror-fantasy romp with lots of action and a cast of very well drawn likable characters. This is the kind of "likable" that makes the reader actually look forward to returning to the various players' points-of-view. I was primed to resists liking this novel, since in my first evaluation it seems unconscionably derivative. But having actually read it, I was reminded of the fact that, as I mentioned above, originality is overrated. 'Drinking Midnight Wine' is not in fact working in a territory that's really, really well trodden though, and Green puts his own fantasy-oriented stamp on things. Moreover, the book made me, yes it made me laugh out loud several times, even as I tried to resist. Well, as they say in Star Train, 'Resistance is futile.'

Simon R. Green Drinking Midnight Wine Roc ISBN: 0451459350 July 2003 Paperback What if you followed the wrong person through the wrong door and found yourself at the center of something that could shake the foundations of the world? Toby Dexter, a bookstore clerk from Bradford-on-Avon, finds out in Simon R. Green's "Drinking Midnight Wine" (Roc). Toby, disillusioned and wondering what's happened to his life, falls madly in love with a beautiful female passenger who rides the train on his regular commute to work. One rainy evening, he decides to follow her, hoping he'll have a chance to meet her on the walk home. But when she opens a door in a wall where there wasn't one before, he gets more than he bargained for. He finds himself in the world of Mysterie, the world where magic has retired as science pushed it out of our own world. Surrounded by gods, fallen angels and magical creatures of all sorts, Toby finds that he is one of the most important figures in Mysterie. He's a focal point, which means that soon he will make a decision that affects the fate of both Mysterie and Veritie, our own world. Nicholas Hob, the Serpent's Son, is up to something and it's up to Toby and his mystery lady Gayle - who turns out to be much more than she appears - to stop him. They recruit the aid of a distant descendant of the Norse god Thor. Johnny Thunders is a leather clad godling who "looked less like a Norse deity and more like the god of Harley-Davidson worshipers, the kind of people who probably recited braking distances under a full moon and sacrificed a Kawasaki when they needed to beg a favor." Still, they'll need his help and more to stop the Hob and his father, the Serpent in the Sun, from bringing ruin to both worlds.

CONTENTS Art Gallery Articles Columns ... Forum The Man With the Golden Torc by Simon R. Green Reviewed by William Mingin 29 August 2007 And thereby hangs the tale of The Man with the Golden Torc , Book One of "The Secret Histories," a new series by Simon R. Green (book two, we're told, will be Demons Are Forever ; and the third may be called From Hell with Love That may seem vague, but anything further would involve ruinous spoilers. Suffice it to say that this is a fantasy adventure with horror and humor throughout. This book follows very much the manner of Green's Nightside series, starring John Taylor, currently at seven books, with an eighth in the offing. We have a sardonic, smart-ass hero with considerable power, who still often finds himself in over his head and has to use guile and brass to get himself through, a basically decent sort who will use nasty means when it's necessary or he's pissed off. The Taylor books are limited to the Nightside, a supernatural square mile in the heart of London (which seems to incorporate within itself something like the endless geographical elasticity of the Simpson's Springfield), but Eddie Drood's London is so full of supernatural entities, it might as well be the Nightside. Green is a prolific writer of fantasy and science fiction, generally in series, who has published over 30 books in the last 20 years or so. His writing is workmanlike (he's improved over the years), but has a certain snap and verve to it, helped along by his hero being a wise-ass, as he is here and in much of Green's work.

Actors Plan to Diss Golden Globes REVIEW: The Unnatural Inquirer by Simon R. Green January 6th, 2008 No Comments The Unnatural Inquirer In this entry, John is offered a case by a tabloid newspaper, The Unnatural Inquirer My thoughts are that visiting The Nightside was a memorable and entertaining experience. This urban fantasy has interesting monsters and dark magic laced with suspense and plenty of wise cracking humor. I found myself laughing out loud for several scenes. The narrator is a cynic and his one-liners are very funny and serves to lightens things up a bit. There are several interesting locales and establishments in the Nightside that kept me turning the pages quickly. For instance, the Museum of Unnatural History where you can find marvels from the past, present and future that also boasts a living T. rex caged and on display. As good as The Unnatural Inquirer B Technorati Tags: Simon R. Green

Green's Nightside series enables me to indulge both pleasures. The books are a quick, fun read, kind of a literary sorbet to be consumed between heavier courses. This book, ­The Unnatural Inquire­r is the eighth book in the series.­ First, a bit about the setting. Nightside is­ located in the center of London but not actually part of the London that exists in our world. The sun never shines in Nightside and it is always 3 A.M. It is a place of decadence where any perversion can be found. Men, monsters, and gods co-mingle. It contains the oldest pub in the world, Strangefellows, as well as the street of gods where gods who have falen out of favor in our world have temples and try to attract followers. It is a fairly common occurance for time slips to open and deposite people and things from the past or future. It is very dangerous and you can be eaten by entities masquerading as a house, taxies, or even ambulances. Part of the fun in reading these books are the supernatural analogues of our world: cell phones with exorcism buttons, office computer systems that come from the future, and the subject of this book

36. Simon R Green: Drinking Midnight Wine - An Infinity Plus Review Not the sort of fantasy where the hero wields a magical sword and saves the world by fighting original and interesting. http://www.infinityplus.co.uk/nonfiction/midnightwine.htm

Drinking Midnight Wine by Simon R Green Simon R Green has written some great fun, heroic magical fantasies with a twist - the heroes can be quite twisted themselves or at the very least, they don't usually start off being heroic. Drinking Midnight Wine is no exception. Toby Dexter, by his own admission pretty much a loser, doesn't seem ideal material to save the world. But when, in our ordinary world, known as Veritie, he follows a beautiful woman off a train and finds himself in the parallel magical world of Mysterie, Toby soon realises he's going to have to act decisively or he'll be dead. This book starts off brilliantly. We are drawn quickly and easily into Toby's character and into his fairly boring life. The switch to the magical world of Mysterie is smooth and accomplished. Once in this world, Green launches us into its oddities with some intriguing characters, a suavely evil villain, and a nicely depicted punch-up augmented by supernatural abilities. This is not, however, the sort of fantasy where the hero wields a magical sword and saves the world by fighting. Instead, Toby and his friends have to battle evil partly by having the courage to confront it at all. In a sense, power here is not muscular but moral, and the battleground is choice, free-will and purpose.

Green Paths Not Taken Deathstalker Coda Nightingale's Lament Deathstalker Return ... Drinking Midnight Wine R EVIEW "captivating tale" In the heart of London accessible to only a few people lies Nightside, a city within a city. It is a dark and gloomy place, where magic works and creatures from myth and legend as well as humans reside there. One of the residents is private investigator John Taylor who with a friend has just returned on a journey to the past where he finally learns who his mother is. She is Lilith, Adam's first wife, who created Nightside, as her domain where the forces of Hell and Heaven can not travel. The gods that are worshipped in Nightside are her children, begotten by consorting with demons. When she became too dangerous, a spell was cast banishing her to Limbo but now she has returned and wants to remake Nightside and the Earth in her image. John intends to stop her using any means available and gathers a wide array of characters to help him defeat his mother. Everything they try fails and it looks like the nightmare from John's trip to the future is coming to pass. In a last desperate attempt to save his city and the world, John is prepared to sacrifice himself if a plan he thought up actually works. Nightside is a place people who are attracted to the macabre will want to visit but is not a place one can stay too long because it casts a hold on you so that the visitor will never want to leave. John, who has been hounded for years because of the prophecy that he will destroy Nightside, is willing to die if it means his city will survive. Simon R. Green has written a captivating tale starring heroic and endearing character whose thoughts when he is in danger are hilarious.
