[books 2014] The last Felix Castor
3. The Naming of the Beasts by Mike Carey
The premise for the final volume is set up in the last book. I couldn't put it down, and thought that it tied up the series nicely. A lot of other people didn't, apparently.
What impresses me most is the sense of place, for reasons I am unable to articulate. Not just because it's set in a city I know reasonably well. I think it's because place is very important to the story line, as in this fictional universe spirits tend to be bound to a particular place. The use of locus in books is something I've been thinking about lately
