The Hanging Tree by Ben Aaronovitch

September 7, 2017 by borisanne Leave a Comment

I’m definitely rolling downhill with these Rivers of London/Peter Grant books. They are predictably a delight, and I catch myself racing through them and savoring them all at once.

Again, sorry if “mytharc” is a thing non-X-Files fans don’t say. Anyway, because it’s a story that is much more linkable to the overall arc of the series than Body Work was, I much prefer it, if […]
