They just saved the world yesterday and no they need to save the British Museum from a zombified T-Rex. Thus is the start of the book. In a world where magic and science both work sometimes even together. We learn that the Russians are planning to disrupt time and change the past to change the future. But no one wants to believe the lead character who they all saw running away from the fight. Unbeknownst to them he was actually in another fight with a Russian that could seemingly teleport and the fight they were in was actually a diversion. And with that the plot truly thickens with MI6 planning an EMP, a la the Matrix, over the greater London area which will stop/kill all electronic devices in use at the time. Fast engaging read and look forward to others in the series.… (meer)

Aside from an irritating repetition of characters telling the POV character to "grow a pair," I really enjoyed this urban fantasy with a cast of characters even more misfit than usual (especially by the end of the tale).

No spoilers in saying this has Lovecraftian touches as well as some good wry British humor to alleviate pressure.

In all, a good solid read that improves from a slightly slow start (at least the POV character took more warming than usual for me).

Fun, fast-paced, and light-hearted neo-pulp romp in an England with magic.

Think of this as if Helen Mirren's Prime Suspect series got shuffled together with Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere and other odder magical touches.

Loads of fun to read and the character growth from the first book (No Hero) is organic and sensible.

Looking forward to Mr. Wood's next novel in this series!

Such a fun series, and this latest (and last) installment doesn't disappoint. It had me laughing out loud at times! The mix of characters are really unique and strongly drawn, especially the emotional entanglements. They are like a family... they hate each other, they care about each other, they resent each other, they have each other's back....they are a small secrets unit of the British government that fights supernatural threats. In this case, some Nazi era giant clockwork robot AIs, a death cult. parallel realities, unexpected pregnancy, and a new team member have the members of MI37 scrambling. A fun and creative series that will bring a smile to your face as you read! I am so going to miss this bunch!… (meer)
