... Mulbridge is to her old tricks trying to pull a snatch and grab with Rafi from his imprisonment. Carey is clearly building to something big with Mulbridge and Rafi that I hope culminates in the next volume. Carey's use of spirits is again impeccably done. In Castor's world all the supernatural elements are spirits of some kind whether they be normal ghosts/poltergeists or werewolves...

I am a frequent sufferer of UKRDR. Unfortunately, my excessive and untreatable bibliophilia (which is troublesome in it's own right) if often exasperated by good authors publishing good books that are not available in the US markets. That doesn't stop British or Canadian book bloggers from talking about them. Mike Carey, Alastair Reynolds, Adam Roberts, Richard Morgan... the list goes...

During an interview that aired yesterday on Fox News Channel, President Barack Obama told Fox’s Major Garrett that his focus remains on job growth. If he’s honest about wanting to keep Americans working, he should take note of the testimony of Mike Carey, president of the Ohio Coal Association, delivered before the Senate Environment and [...]

My partner is laid up in bed with a bad back , and I must say he is getting a bit crotchety with the pain and enforced boredom. What's more, he ran out of books to read. His favourite fiction at the moment is Mike Carey's supernatural noir series of Felix Castor books, about an exorcist-turned-detective set in a version of modern day London thick with ghosts, zombies and sinister plots....

... get both feet down. It should have been an incomplete pass. But after reviewing the tape, referee Mike Carey decided it was a good catch. The whole afternoon was like this. Play-after-play, series-after-series, four quarters in all, this was something far short of NFL football. They played a United Football League game down the road in San Jose on Saturday night. Wonder if this game...
