From reading the first installment it is clear to see why from both the spark of magic but also the gaps that remain, I was left with many questions.īefore jumping into the meat of Rivers of London, I will be clear that this review is coming from the perspective of having just read this installment and not any of the rest of the series.
The Rivers of London was published in 2011 and has since developed into a series spanning 11 novels and novella’s as well as a number of graphic novels. The London that Aaronovitch creates in the first book of the urban fantasy Peter Grant series, manages to balance details familiar to anyone who has spent any time in London, while also weaving into the city streets a beautiful new magic world. While the first two may be real reasons I love living in London, the third is a creation of Ben Aaronovitch’s, Rivers of London, a creative re-imaging of modern-day London. London is an amazing city for the sheer breadth of people, cultures, and activities that live within it Brixton’s wealth of Caribbean food, 3000 parks, and green spaces, and an ancient form of magic first formalised by Sir Isaac Newton?
