CSI meets Harry Potter in this fantastic new graphic novel from Ben Aaronovitch, writer of the bestselling Rivers of London supernatural police procedural crime novel series! Something dark and slimy is dripping through the walls of suburban London. Not the usual stuff that smells funny and can be hell on the lungs, this mould is possessed by some dark power full of bad intentions. Looks like it's another case for London's one and only trainee wizard cop, Police Constable Peter Grant, and his reluctant partner, Sahra Guleed! An all-new adventure for Ben Aaronvitch's laconic, way-past-cool but slightly geeky trainee wizard and budding detective, Peter Grant! Tying directly into the Rivers of London continuity, set between Foxglove Summer and The Hanging Tree Aaronovitch is joined by Doctor Who writer Andrew Cartmel for this gripping new series.

Review of 'Rivers of London' on 'Goodreads'

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.
