Mike Shevdon

Mike Shevdon is a British fantasy author from Yorkshire, England. He writes the Courts of the Feyre novels, an urban fantasy sequence that begins with Sixty-One Nails (2009) and hides a world of feyre folk within the tunnels and everyday geography of the London Underground. The series continued with The Road to Bedlam, Strangeness and Charm, and The Eighth Court, following an ordinary Londoner drawn into a hidden conflict between the fey courts operating beneath the modern city. Shevdon's books sit within the British urban fantasy tradition that grounds old folklore in recognizable contemporary settings, using London's transit network and its ancient crossing-points as the hidden architecture of a fey underworld his characters must learn to navigate.
