Author of The Girl with All the Gifts Mike Carey presents the first book in his hip supernatural thriller series featuring freelance exorcist Felix Castor.
Felix Castor is a freelance exorcist, and London is his stomping ground. It may seem like a good ghostbuster can charge what he likes and enjoy a hell of a lifestyle, but there's a risk: sooner or later he's going to take on a spirit that's too strong for him.
When Castor accepts a seemingly simple ghost-hunting case at a museum in the shadowy heart of London, what should have been a perfectly straightforward exorcism is rapidly turning into the Who Can Kill Castor First Show, with demons and ghosts all keen to claim the big prize.
But that's business as usual: Castor knows how to deal with the dead. It's the living who piss him off....

"Carey transcends his comic roots in this quirky, dark and imaginative tale that compels reader to keep turning pages long after they should have gotten to sleep." (Kirkus, starred review)
"An imaginative spin on the hard-boiled detective...mixes horror and humor in a way that spells good omens for future Castor novels." (Entertainment Weekly)

I was excited to see Mike Carey, an author of some of my favorite graphic novels, penning a dark, gritty, Constantine-esque urban fantasy. I was even more excited to see that it was the beginning of a series, so I had high hopes that it might be my new go to after series like the Dresden Files and Sandman Slim.
But alas, it just wasn’t “enough” for me. A little too mainstream mystery, not enough of the fantasy elements, not quite quippy enough, not quite enough magic…
Don’t get me wrong, not BAD. I still listened to the whole book, but I hope-listened until the end. It was satisfying enough that I’m not upset about the purchase, but I don’t think I’ll continue the series.
Adequate, but not earth shattering
