Mike Faricy was awarded the 2016 IACM Silver Award for Best Mystery Author.

His books have held the #1 slot in the Kindle Store in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and India.

Mike Faricy was listed as the IACM Author of the Month for April 2018.

His Dev Haskell tale, The Office, was a finalist for the 2018 Minnesota Book Awards and the 2018 Killer Nashville Silver Falchion Award.

He was awarded the Crime Masters of America Poison Cup Award in January of 2019.

His Dev Haskell tale, Star Struck, was a mystery finalist for the 2019 Killer Nashville Silver Falchion Award.

The Dirty Lowdown called Mike Faricy America's hottest new mystery writer.

Robert Carraher referred to him as Minnesota's Master of the Bizarre.

Crime Scene referred to him as the next Carl Hiaasen.

Crime Capers said; "Open at your own risk, you won't put him down."

UnderCover wrote; "This guy is nuts and one hell of a lot of fun.”

The Irish Gazette referred to; "The laugh a minute storylines of Faricy's deliciously engaging worlds."

Mike’s Dev Haskell series books are stand-alone, they can be read in any order. His Corridor Man series was initially written under the pseudonym Nick James and should be read in order. His Jack Dillon Dublin Tales series was originally written under the pseudonym, Patrick Emmett. His Hotshot series are standalone tales that can be read in any order. Faricy's novels are filled with the sort of oddballs we're all curious about, but wisely prefer to keep at a distance. His characters serve not so much as an example as they do a warning. None of them will be saving the world from terrorism, international banking conspiracies or coups to take over the government. Rather, Faricy's characters inhabit a world just below the surface of polite society. The circumstances they find themselves in are usually due to their own bad decisions, but then bad decisions make for interesting stories.

Reminiscent of the late Robert B. Parker, Faricy's tightly woven Dev Haskell series is penned with a delightful sense of humor and even some romance. Entertainment is the name of the game as back-slapping, corner-cutting, babe magnet Dev Haskell interacts with such quirky characters as ice cream mogul Mr. Swirlee, The D'Angelo brothers, local crime lord Tubby Gustafson, 'Fat Freddie' Zimmerman, former NFL tight end Luscious Dixon, exotic dancer Swindle Lawless, and gorgeous Heidi Bauer. The Dev Haskell novels can be read in any order.

Faricy's Corridor Man series was originally released under the pen name Nick James. The series is a bit more gritty than the Dev Haskell series and a lot more violent. Disbarred attorney Bobby Custer makes his way back into the legal game. He's neurotic, psychotic, psychopathic, narcissistic, greedy, unprincipled and . . . always charming.

Faricy's Jack Dillon Dublin Tales series was originally released under the pen name Patrick Emmett. US Marshal Jack Dillon is sent to Dublin to escort a prisoner back to the US. Things don't go exactly as planned and trouble ensues. Dillon becomes permanently stationed in Dublin, just to get him out of his boss's hair. Things take an entertaining turn from there, think of a cross between Dev Haskell and James Bond.

Faricy's Hotshot series are zany, delightfully entertaining standalone crime tales.

Enjoy the reads!

Originally from Saint Paul, Minnesota, Faricy still spends six months of the year in the saintly city as well as six months in Dublin, Ireland.

What a character!

Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2023

Verified Purchase

Some folks didn't seem to like the main character, but to me he's funny, quirky, snarky, and a good representation of what I might think of when picturing a P.I. who's single. I've finished book one in this boxset and am well into the second book. Still enjoying it! Looking forward to reading the entire series, then on to another of Mike's collections.

I would definitely recommend these books. Just when I think my day sucks, Dev makes me realize it could be so much worse! Dev Haskell is a riot! I like the sarcasm, wit, his relationships, and how he always falls into a pile of crap and manages to get back up on his bar stool! I would love to see this made into a tv show, b/c I would absolutely watch it!

I loved his Dublin series, cannot say the same for this one. The main character, Dev Haskell PI, is mostly drunk and steals money and accidentally manages to solve something between his drunken sex exploits. I made it through this box set but regret buying the rest of the novels in this sefies.

These three books were interesting in the way of mystery. The main character is a lovable but bumbling PI.never could you meet someone who could get in so much trouble. It makes him an interesting character. Would definitely recommend this author.

Good mysteries with some humor thrown in for good measure!

Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2018

Verified Purchase

I really like the Dev Haskell series. Dev is a rascal investigator that seems to stay in trouble all the time. You can't help but not like the guy or at least I can't. He is always in trouble with Detective Manning who assumes that Dev is somehow involved in crimes committed in St, Paul and sometimes he is guilty as charged, but Dev just likes to push the envelope a little is all. Anyway, if you like mysteries with a little humor thrown in, I think you will like this series. I can hardly wait to get started on the next series.

I would give this series a higher rating ( three and a half ) if the author hired a professional proof reader. the run-on sentences and errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, and vocabulary are embarrassing. that said, this writer manages to do what too many fail at these days - maintain a first person narrator's voice without resorting to pages and pages of introspection and flashbacks. the action moves along well and there is humor. I hope dev and his friends start to show some character development, but time will tell.

Fast-paced and energetic. Full of oddball characters. Just read Book 1 and thoroughly enjoyed it. will keep going with Dev if the other books prove to be as humorously offbeat.
