Rivers of London

With Ben Aaronovitch’s latest entry into the world of Peter Grant coming in July 2025 I thought it would be a good time to reread the whole series in chronological order (including short stories, graphic novels, and audiobook.)

By the time I’ve read all of these again hopefully I’ll be near the release of ‘Stone and Sky’ and can just drop onto it straight away.

I think it’s obvious but the red tick means I’ve reread them, I will eventually get a review for each one of them on the site as well.
