Dav reviewed A Rare Book of Cunning Device by Ben Aaronovitch (Rivers of London, #6.5)

I need to read the rest of the series, I think, to appreciate this. Well written, though.

Somewhere amongst the shadowy stacks and the many basements of the British library, something is very much amiss - and we're not talking late returns here. Is it a ghost, or something much worse? PC Peter Grant really isn't looking forward to finding out....

I do love a quick, compact short story, and this one fits that description. I also love libraries and movie references, so this story is a pretty big hit for me, and it is completely separated from the normal Rivers storyline, so only a vague understanding of any of the other books is necessary to enjoy this story.
Five stars because I was rooting for the book!
