"The Devil You know"- Mike Carey's first novel.

[Ice]

MC: My first novel, The Devil You Know, gets released in July so I’ll be over here doing a book tour. That’s going to be very cool.

I hope part of his book tour is in New York because I will so skip work for this. Lately I have really been enjoying Mike's work and withouth knowing anything about the novel besides the title, I'm already excited for it.

Mike Carey is very hit or miss. His stuff with the UFF has been very up and down, same with his current X-Men. I'll get around to reading Lucifer later on, but right now, I'm not really a Carey fan.

I was asked by Seldes on MSN whether or not this was a prose or graphic novel.

It's definetly a prose novel.

Luis - the July novel (The Devil You Know) is a prose novel rather than a graphic one. It’s the first in the Castor series, and there are a fair number of reviews of it online already, Some of my favourites are at
