The Naming of the Beasts by Mike Carey
5.0
The Castor books do not lack in excitement or movement, and this book is no exception. It picks up very nicely where book 4 left off; with Castor struggling with the ramifications of his decision to break Rafi out of the cell in which he was being held; and everything that happened after - culminating in the deaths and destruction of innocent people. By the time he picks himself out of the gutter of booze and vomit he has dumped himself in, it is because the demon possessing Rafi has it made it clear his spree has barely begun.
And for Fix, his chaos is just beginning. Juliet is loosing control - and Fix knows that he has no one to tame her once she does. Pen is furious with Fix for loosing control of both Rafi and his own life. And in order to get control of Rafi, Fix is willing to strike a deal with his own nemesis.
Mikey Carey does a fantastic job bringing this particular storyline to a irrevocable conclusion using some unexpected tactics. I hope he continues on with the series - Fix and Juliet remain interesting characters, and he still has the question to answer why ghosts have became so active. But if he does not, he just offered readers a great ending to a great series.
