Powell's Staff: Books to Fill the TV-Shaped Hole in Your Heart (0 comment)
This last week, we had to say goodbye to TV shows about a complicated, rich family; a murdery, wannabe actor; an enthusiastically kind football coach and his team; and a would-be stand-up comedian in 1950s New York. We already miss them...

Publisher Comments

Some people have the Sight. Genevieve Scelan has the Scent.

They call her "Hound," and with her unique supernatural sense Evie can track nearly anything—lost keys, vanished family heirlooms . . . even missing people. And though she knows to stay out of the magical undercurrent that runs beneath Boston's historic streets, a midnight phone call from a long-vanished lover will destroy the careful boundaries she has drawn. Now, to pay a years-old debt, Evie must venture into the shadowy world that lies between myth and reality, where she will find betrayal, conspiracies, and revelations that will shatter all she believes about herself and the city she claims as home.

When the Hunt is on, the Hound must run . . .

Review

“[R]efreshing. . . One thing in particular that I found very attractive about this book is that Ronald concentrates entirely on Celtic mythology while building her world . . . SPIRAL HUNT offers a tremendous sense of place. Elizabeth Bear, Realms of Fantasy

Review

“[A]n amusingly different urban Celtic fantasy.” Locus

Review

“[O]ne of the better books Ive read based on Celtic matter.” Charles de Lint, Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction

Review

“I loved, loved, loved this book. I picked it up before bed and couldnt put it down. Fantastic, moving, thrilling -- deeply thoughtful -- and beautifully crafted . . . [T]his was one of the best books Ive read in a long time.” New York Times bestselling author Marjorie M. Liu

Review

“[A] fun adventure, a promising start to a new series and a solid first novel.” Locus

About the Author

Margaret Ronald learned to read on a blend of The Adventures of Tintin, Greek mythology, and Bloom County compilations. Her vocabulary never quite recovered. The author of two previous Evie Scelan novels, Spiral Hunt and Wild Hunt, Margaret has also written stories for Realms of Fantasy, Strange Horizons, Baen's Universe, and Fantasy Magazine.

Margaret Ronald takes Irish Legends and contemporary life and combines it for a wonderful book that is a compelling read. From the first page to the last, there was not one boring or ho-hum minute. The dialog (which can be a book-killer in some instances) was believable with no un-necessary by-play. There were quite a variety of characters, suspicious, brave, sweet, crazed, paranoid; a lot of personalities were in this book. There is suspense, some heart-pounding moments, a touch of romance (just a touch - which is just enough for this story). I enjoyed very much, reading this book, and I am glad to see that Ms Ronald will have another book (Wild Hunt) published. Too bad I have to wait until 2010, though.
