Overview:
Step into the vivid, nocturnal world of the Rivers of London with this six-volume graphic-novel collection from Ben Aaronovitch. Following Peter Grant, London's apprentice wizard and police constable, the series blends gritty crime-solving with enchantment, urban myth, and a sly sense of humor.

Black Mould plunges suburbia into a creeping mystery where slime drips through walls and the mundane becomes haunted by the uncanny. Detective Stories gathers bite-sized cases that flesh out the world without slowing momentum. Cry Fox examines power struggles in a magical crime drama, while Water Weed drags river goddesses into a contemporary underworld of crime and influence. This paperback set is ideal for fans of urban fantasy, graphic novels, and investigative thrillers alike.
