Blind_Mapmaker reviewed Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch
Review of 'Rivers of London' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Still not a friend of the art style and the dearth of the pithy, sarcastic narrator voice that makes the Rivers of London novels so great, but the story is spot on in this one. Although, I am kind of sad that it is over so quickly. I do think it would have made a better novella than a comic. Some scenes are just too short to work, e.g. Dominic and the 'demonic' goats. Also, worst back cover image ever, has nothing whatsoever to do with the main plot.
