What I'm Reading Wednesday
Oct. 2nd, 2019 10:07 pmI am re-reading an old favourite book right now - Rivers Of London by Ben Aaronovitch.
It's the first in the series of urban fantasy police procedural novels featuring Police Constable and apprentice wizard, Peter Grant.
The novel centres around the adventures of Peter Grant, a young officer in the Metropolitan Police; who, following an unexpected encounter with a ghost, is recruited into the small branch of the Met that deals with magic and the supernatural.
Peter Grant, having become the first English apprentice wizard in over seventy years, must immediately deal with two different but ultimately inter-related cases. In one he must find what is possessing ordinary people and turning them into vicious killers, and in the second he must broker a peace between the two warring gods of the River Thames and their respective families
I've almost finished reading it and I'm planning on picking straight up with the second book in the series next, Moon Over Soho
