Folks, I simply can’t recommend this guy’s writing highly enough. I thought he was good writing sci fi as Michael Marshall Smith but his ‘modern day’ novels are something else entirely. Suspenseful to the point of being utterly unputdownable, peppered with non preachy humanism and consumerist critique, all delivered with lashings of grace and style.
Sir, I stand in awe.

His novel from this year, BAD THINGS is terrific!
Can’t wait to get my grubby little paws on it…
I did quite like that series. Very solid and readable, and I do like the underlying sociology/architecture riff.
I did find a certain bit in one of the later ones where he obviously just can’t stop his SF writer instincts a bit jarring (psychic sasquatches? What?) but other than that, great series overall.
