Koli is looking for lost London. In a world where a journey of two miles is an odyssey, he's going to walk two hundred.

Spinner just wants peace and safety, but when her village of Mythen Rood is shaken by plague and violence she chooses a different path.

Ursala from Elsewhere needs to repair her medical kit, which means following the ancient signal to something called the 'Sword of Albion'.

The Peacemaker believes that all tech is his by right - including Koli's, Ursala's and Mythen Rood's precious, dwindling store. Now he's reaching out to claim his property, and Ingland is facing something it hasn't seen in three centuries. War.

M.R. Carey

M.R. Carey

M.R. Carey has a knack for blending the uncanny with the deeply human, crafting stories that haunt, resonate, and provoke thought long after the last page is turned. A master of tension and emotional complexity, Carey’s works often explore the fragility of humanity, the consequences of survival, and the resilience of the spirit in the face of overwhelming odds.

Best known for The Girl with All the Gifts, Carey redefined the post-apocalyptic genre, creating a chilling yet moving tale of a young girl who holds the key to humanity’s future in a world ravaged by a devastating fungal infection. With a premise that blends horror, science fiction, and the profound innocence of childhood, the book resonated deeply with readers and critics alike, leading to a film adaptation and securing Carey’s place in the literary spotlight.

But Carey’s talents don’t end there. His writing spans multiple genres, from dark fantasy to psychological thrillers, always with a unique twist. His style is rich in character-driven narratives, where the story is just as much about the inner world of the characters as it is about the external events shaping their fates. Whether it’s the deep psychological drama in The Boy on the Bridge or the gripping world-building of Felix Castor series, Carey’s ability to merge genre conventions with deeply personal stories sets him apart.

Raised in the UK, Carey’s background in comic book writing (under his real name, Mike Carey) helped hone his ability to craft vivid worlds and complex characters in both visual and written mediums. This expertise translates into his novels, where pacing, atmosphere, and emotional arcs are as carefully constructed as the worlds they inhabit.

Beyond his success as a novelist, M.R. Carey continues to push boundaries, whether in his collaborations on graphic novels or his works that cross between speculative fiction and literary drama. His ability to evoke empathy for even the most unlikely characters—whether human or something else—keeps readers coming back, eager to discover where his words will take them next.

For those looking for stories that are as emotionally gripping as they are thought-provoking, M.R. Carey’s books offer a journey worth taking.
