Wow! This book reads super fast and is difficult to put down. It’s also not the place for a person to start this series as a few of the running plot lines come to a head.

Peter’s magic dampening holding cell is an interesting new development and makes me wonder if Molly can create something similar at the folly. Would they have been able to hold Chorley? Hmmm…

I like that we now know Leslie’s motivation for teaming up with The Faceless Man. It was never as simple as getting her face back, and now I’m interested to see where that anger will carry her in future books. I’d be surprised if Aaronovitch just abandoned a complex character like Leslie. She’s a bit of an antihero.

I’m not sure if I missed it, but I really would like to know what Chorley expected to happen if his plan had succeeded? What would killing a god and releasing that power actually do?

And finally, that last reveal! Whoa! That’s definitely going to complicate Peter’s life, probably for the better. I’m guessing it will give us a few laughs in future books as well.
