There’s something very wrong with her lumbar vertebrae. But then, there’s got to be something wrong with anyone who voluntarily lives in a place called ‘Castle Midnight’.

The humans look as if they’re ruining a great party. Also, Simon IS Green, surely?

“Can somebody PLEASE turn on the lights? I can’t see what I’m fighting!”
“Pardon ma’am, we’re not allowed, this is Castle Midnight…”
“Then let’s go to Castle Daylight!”

That green thing looks like Jabba the Hutt with dentures and a toupee.

Doo doo doo-doo-doo-doo doo da doo, doo doo doo-doo-doo-doo doo da doo, DOO da da da-da, DOO da da da-da…

“Hey – watch where you swing that thing, lady – you could cut a guys eyestalks off!!”
January 14th, 2014 at 12:26 pm
Oh – another thing…
If someones actually read the novel, could they please explain how Princely Actor Man acquires the ability to squirt pressurized orange juice from the palms of his hands?

I believe Mr Honor is flashing some jazz hands here.

I’d recognize that shag anywhere! That’s David Hasselhoff! It’s Space Baywatch!!

So I’m pretty sure they painted armor, at great expanse and at the last minute, over the previously topless woman. Maybe they felt the tentacle wrapped around her leg was a bridge too far?

Man: “Look we’re really not fighting well together today… FINE… I’ll say it… I’m sorry for taking your tights this morning. They keep my legs so cosy!”

@Tom Noir—That’s armor? I thought the poor lass was suffering from the heartbreak of psoriasis.
January 14th, 2014 at 4:05 pm
@B. Chiclitz: of course! Castle Midnight, ‘Baywatch Nights’ series two, it all makes sense. As much as it ever could, anyway.

So if he is good in his role he wins those Golden Globes?
January 14th, 2014 at 5:42 pm
@ Bibliomancer – I wish they were jazz hands, but i believe its the rare and offensive jizz hands he is weilding there.
Fantasy women are the best, they wear custom boob made chest armor and who needs pants? PAH, pants are for wussy men!

A third appearance by Hawk and Fisher? Or has Simon R. Green written multiple series about monster-fighting couples?
January 15th, 2014 at 5:40 pm
No, the Blue Moon books are crossovers with Hawk and Fisher but this is a standalone. There are some similarities, as Green’s books can get formulaic at times, but I find some of them quite enjoyable, including _Shadows Fall_ and this one (though this cover, eurgh).

Hey isn’t that Slimer from the Ghost Busters on the right?
June 25th, 2014 at 11:05 pm
Notice how polite the eyes-on-stalks monster is, He is very carefully only looking at the woman from the neck up. How very “new monster” of him. He does blot his copybook a bit by copping a feel, though.

They must have been attacked while dressing.

Using the word ‘magic’ as a verb makes me uneasy.
Or should I say, I am uneasked into it???
October 26th, 2015 at 1:53 pm
@Dead Stuff WBT—I feel the same way when “pleasure” is used as a verb.
Thank you for exampling that point.
October 26th, 2015 at 5:17 pm
Seriously? A monster leg-humping a half-naked lady?
And the blurb says “stalked” so naturally, the monster has eye stalks…
October 29th, 2015 at 4:16 am
@Severian and anon. Stop projecting your imperialist anthropocentric aesthetic values onto an innocent monster, clearly averting its eyes from what is, to it, a hideous sight. Who are the real monsters here, I ask you?
October 29th, 2015 at 4:40 am
@RachelJ—in the words of the immortal Pogo, “We have met the enemy and he is us.”
October 31st, 2015 at 6:25 pm
@RachelJ, @B.Chiclitz: “…and he humped our legs.”
