Summary

After foiling an attempt to destroy the universe, Mercury has gone missing. And with the devil already putting the final fiendish touches on his next scheme to bring about the apocalypse, all that stands between Lucifer and his dreams of a hellfire holocaust are two misfit humans: jaded religion reporter Christine Temetri and mild-mannered forensic analyst Jacob Slater. The pair soon realizes that the Prince of Darkness has set his sights higher than they can reach; he’s planning to bring his battle for domination straight to the pearly gates. They’ll need the wisecracking, Ping-Pong-loving, apathetic angel Mercury to help save the day, the world, and Heaven before the clock ticks down to the End Times…if they can find him.

By turns epic and explosive, Mercury Rests concludes the trilogy that Booklist describes as a “hilarious romp” that has “cult favorite written all over it.”

Not as good as the earlier books in the series

It's still funny and clever, but there's only so much a writer can do with the same characters and settings. It's not sufficiently self-contained that you'll make much sense of it without having read the previous two books but, if you have, you'll find little new here. It's not a bad book by any means, and it does move the story along. It's just that the story feels a bit stretched thin. The narrator made a workmanlike job of the reading, but it wasn't particularly inspiring.

I listened to about a half of this, and then lost interest. I might pick it up again if I run out of other stuff to read, but I might not.

An fun mindbender.

Loved it. Reading the next one right after this. I am going to be sorry to have no more to read.
