Liebesgrüße Aus Der Hölle[Sein Job: Streng Geheim, Sein Auftrag: Jagd Auf Dämonen] (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
I have found a couple of glitches with this fourth book as I am reading it.In book 3,Eddie tells Walker he plans to restart the bomb to destroy the Independent Agent's lair.In this book,items from the Independent agent's lair are being brought to the Old Library for study.We even see the Independent agent's body.Also Eddie calls the librarian Walker when his name is William.I have also noticed a handful of typos which I don't normally expect to see from a larger publisher. These should probably go under the glitches but i am getting tired of them myself so instead I will just say this was a question that confused me while reading the book.In the second novel, when an Elflord stabs Eddie with a knife made from starnge matter,his armor absorbs it.Also when he touches the stolen torc in book 3, his armor absorbs that as well.So why aren't the strange matter weapons of the Accelerated Men absorbed? The second question is why would an old style torc still be around and functioning?I think these glitches and strangeness keep occurring because the Droods are just too powerful in their armor.Therefore challenges towards them have no way to keep up with them if they play by the rules set forth so the rules keep getting bent.Even with the glitches, I am still liking the series.I just wish they stayed true to their own internal logic. Everyone's favorite secret agent shaman is back with his witchy lady in From Hell with Love, the latest in Simon R. Green's Secret Histories series. After gaining popularity for the series, Green expanded what was originally a trilogy into a full-blown series. From Hell with Love is the first step out of the original mold and into something more. The result is good, but not great.Eddie Drood never has it easy. Especially now, with the Matriarch of the Drood family dead and the family in chaos, with Eddie as the acting head of the family to unravel the mystery behind his grandmother's death. Some people even dare to point the finger at Eddie himself.From Hell with Love tried to expand the Secret Histories universe, but something about it just didn't quite hit critical mass yet. This world just isn't as wild or as well developed as Nightside, so I find myself missing it. At least, in Hell with Love, readers get the opportunity to return to Nightside even more, but almost to a point where it starts to feel like Secret Histories is leaning too much on the Nightside instead of developing into its own universe.Despite this, I just can't dislike Green novels. Hell with Love has entertaining twists and turns, and is far more engaging and unexpected than the last novel in the series, Spy Who Haunted Me. But let me warn you: the cliffhanger ending of Hell with Love will make you so mad. Luckily for me, I had the next book close at hand, but if you don't, you'll want to throw the book against the wall -and immediately run out and buy the next one.
