Graham Joyce

Here's an author whose every book has something unusual and intriguing to enjoy. He's usually categorized as a fantasy writer, but his work transcends the genre. In his best work, in which I would include The Tooth Fairy, The Facts of Life, and Smoking Poppy, he is developing a uniquely English strain of magical realism, in which the border between the natural and the supernatural is not as obvious as we would like to believe.
 
I am really liking Graham Joyce, I just finished, Dark Sister, and it is my favorite so far. The Tooth Fairy, was quite good as well, both were a bit dark fantasy mixed well with contemporary drama. I did not care for, Facts of Life, or, Silentland, quite as much, they were not bad but I found them just okay.
