Description

Peter Grant is one of only two members of a very special branch of London's Metropolitan Police. He is, in fact, pretty much a wizard and it's his job to investigate those shadowy crimes that involve urban vampires, weird folk in the underground and, in this case, why cars are suddenly taking on lives of their own and killing innocent folk!.

Loved this book as a light distraction read. Loved the references to historical London and geography of London. Likeable characters if somewhat predictable.

Interesting. The depictions of the characters don't (unsurprisingly) match what I had in my head, so it took a little while to warm up to them. The dialog is pretty much what I expected from the books; the usual descriptions are, of course, replaced by the artwork. It works for me. This is a very

short section of the story (again, unsurprisingly - it is a comic); I want to read the rest of the story in quick succession.

Love the illustrated story and visual action. Just as much I liked the errata, geographic background, historical background.

I read all the Rivers of London books and the graphic novel is a fun addition. Look forward to more.

I should have paid more attention. I didn't realize it was a graphic short story. Not that it was bad. Just not what I was looking for.
