Drinking Midnight Wine



Drinking Midnight Wine by Simon R. Green is one of his few stand alone novels. I am not sure how much I LOVED this book but now that it is over I miss the characters. So I guess that means it was pretty good.

This is the tale of two worlds colliding. The world of magic and the ordinary world of humans. Powerful forces, godlings, lycanthropes, you name it, they make an appearance.

To sum it up here is a few lines from the story:


What value can one ordinary man have in a magical world?

What can a mortal bring to the affairs of immortals?

Insight. Honor. Morality. Perspective.

Because nothing makes love and life matter more than the knowledge that some day it must end.
