5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Sumerechnyi dozor (Twilight Watch, Russian Edition) (Hardcover)
"Twilight Watch" (also translated as "Dusk Watch") is the 3rd book in the Night Watch trilogy-now-tetralogy. It opens with a mystery: the Night Watch, the Day Watch, and the neutral-overseer Inquisition receives anonymous notes that a way has been found to turn normal humans into Others. Yet this isn't supposed to be possible! The danger represented by the information would turn the world upside down.
In the 2nd half, Anton while vacationing in the country, comes across a strange, powerful witch living in the woods, hiding from something...
In this book, Lukyanenko keeps up the excellence of his writing, characterization, excitement, and the moral quandry is as present as ever. The line between the Light and the Dark gets finer still. There is more exploration of the "science" behind magic and a look into the past that I really enjoyed.
This book is definitely more fast-paced than "Day Watch," with many exciting and shocking twists and turns, and a stunning conclusion.
