'If you like this sort of thing…' reads a line from Stephen Gallagher's ''The Kingdom of Bones'', 'then here comes the kind of thing you’ll like'. It’s describing the opening music for a theatrical number, but it’s an almost perfect tagline for ''The Kingdom of Bones'' itself. If you like Victorians, vaudeville and villainy, if you like prize-fighting and police chases and possession by the Devil, then here comes ''The Kingdom of Bones''. It’s the kind of thing that you’re really going to like.
