A series of small follies

Tales from The Folly by Ben Aaronovitch

October 9, 2020 by kittenkong42 1 Comment

The Rivers of London stories have spread out from their original novels into a number of formats – an ongoing graphic novel series, and short stories posted in varying places. Tales from the Folly collates a number of these short stories into a book to provide some little offshoots for the main character Peter Grant, but also some limelight to other characters that have appeared.

September 26, 2018 by melanir 2 Comments

I would argue that the ‘urban’ part of Urban Fantasy is just as vital to the story as the fantasy part.

Damn. It’s only April and I’ve already fallen behind in my reviews, so this one’s a two-fer as I try and catch up. I read these back-to-back during some sleepless nights in Rome (which was actually a plus as far as I was concerned – I got to do tons of sightseeing while also racking up some serious reading time), safely ignorant of the fact that there aren’t any more in the series yet until I got to the end of The Hanging Tree and […]

It’s a Hard Knock Life

March 20, 2017 by Lipton 2 Comments

In the criminal justice system, magical crimes are considered especially bizarre. In London, the detectives who investigate these crimes are increasingly beset by dangers both mundane and otherworldly. These are their stories. Dun DUN.
