Nightside follows John Taylor, a down-at-heel private investigator with the dangerous gift of finding anything, who takes cases inside the Nightside - a hidden, perpetually dark district of London where gods, monsters, and magic operate outside the reach of ordinary law. Simon R. Green's noir fantasy series, beginning with Something from the Nightside, follows Taylor deeper into the district's politics and his own mysterious origins across fourteen novels.
