Have you read any of these books by Philip Caveney? They sound good. But they are hard to get in Sweden. Bookshops don't have them, not even the ones who focus on fantasy and sci fi. Guess I am forced to order them on the web.

Caveney is a good writer. I enjoyed Sebastian Darke a lot. And reading the describtions, with Alec going to Egypt and Crete, it sort of remind me of the work by Rick Riordan (Percy Jackson, Kane siblings). Alec Devling does face ancient supernatural stuff during his adventures, right?

I like the books and wonder if they could ever work for a live action version.
I think it's very much possible. Artemis Fowl seems to have been greenlighted, and anything can be done these days in terms of special effects.
