I looked it up after I saw that in the film, he was hit by an Avada Kedavra spell. In the book, he probably wasn't -Harry would have recognized it-, he just fell through the veil, and dissapeared, after being hit by "a jet of light" by Bellatrix Lestrange's wand. It is not mentioned what spell it was, but he's still alive when he dissapears through the arc. It read, both back then and today, to me as if he dropped through by a kind of accident. Very "oops".

Snape on the side of the angels? Never in this world - or the next! Rowling has built him up so overwhelmingly as a nasty, vindictive piece of work, it would be a serious fault of characterisation to redeem him at the eleventh hour. I think she's a better writer than that.

Well, I'm not necessarily saying he is a nice person deep down, only very misunderstood. Or a "good guy" as such. but I do believe he is not on Voldemort's side, in the end. (For clues, see endless internet discussions.
The sites Buzzfloyd linked to offer a lot of material, indeed.
