John Taylor and Suzie Shooter are about to do the deed, tie the knot, measure themselves for matching leg shackles, in short, to commit the big M (matrimony rather than murder.) Walker now, John Taylor is shrugging on his new role while holding tight to the essence of himself as private detective. After a murderously entertaining party for the Immortals, Taylor's stag party revels are put a bit off track when the universally venerated Julian Advent calls upon him in both his roles to aid and assist. The Nightside faces its biggest threat yet; straight from Haight Ashbury and the Age of Aquarius with a soundtrack plucked from the musical Hair.

Add a dash of time travel, a sprinkling of aliens and great lashings of clever repartee surrounding a tale of John Taylor on the run in very entertaining fashion and you have another wild ride into the world and mind of Simon R. Green. THE BRIDE WORE BLACK LEATHER, the twelfth in the Nightside series might (or perhaps might not) be final book. If so, it is a fitting way to end but if not Green's multitude of fans will gladly snap up number thirteen.
