Rivers of London: A Binge-Worthy Banquet

“My dad says that some people are born with a gift. And it doesn’t come with a receipt. You can’t take it back and you can’t give it away. And try as you might, you can’t ignore it. It’s an itch you’ve got to scratch. Even if you draw blood.”

Some of you may know Ben Aaronovich’s fantasy London from his bestselling book series, Rivers of London. The series follows Peter Grant who is not only a police officer, but a part-time wizard in training – particularly useful when supernatural occurrences and crimes keep cropping up at work. The canonical comic book collections follow Peter Grant and co as they maintain their fight against supernatural crimes and forces.

The readers guide above illustrates where the graphic novels sit in the timeline of the series. Read more about each one here…
