He's earnest and heroic? Oh, then he's doomed. Everyone except the protagonists, I've noticed, are doomed to fall from heroic heights to secretly evil depths that are uncovered only by the noirish, good-hearted-yet-ultimately-pragmatic protagonists of of Green's books.
After reading a good two dozen or so of his books, including the Hawk & Fisher novels in original format, I've come to expect this from him. I hope to be disappointed, though.
ETA: I forgot to say, the lesbian vicar with the demon girlfriend? Yeah, given Green's morally ambiguous, incredibly situationally relevant moralityish universe? The demon might not even be (entirely) evil.
