    The rights are for almost his complete works but I guess, As I Lay Dying could be such a layered and intricate experience with so many narrators taking turns. Almost exponentially increased Rashomon-style.

    Reading that the third book in Martin Millar's series featuring Kalix MacRinnalch is coming out this summer reminded me what a wonderful movie or two could be made of these books. The two thus far, Lonely Werewolf Girl and Curse of the Wolf Girl, are so darkly hilarious. They present the anorexic, laudanum-addicted teen scion of a noble Scottish werewolf clan, on the lam in modern London, with such insight and punkish energy that one can almost see parts of the movie already. There is also an extensive, wildly varying cast of supporting characters.

    The Rivers of London series by Ben Aaronovitch. These are urban fantasy police procedurals that would make wonderful movies.
    This this this.
