This 13-book paperback collection gathers Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London series in one place, following Metropolitan Police constable turned apprentice wizard Peter Grant as he investigates supernatural crime across the capital and beyond. From Soho jazz clubs to rural villages, Peter's cases blend police procedural grit with folklore, river gods and dry London wit. Witty, inventive and packed with procedural detail, it's the complete way to enjoy one of modern fantasy's most beloved series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book(s)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe series begins with Rivers of London, introducing Peter Grant, a newly qualified constable who stumbles into the Met's hidden magical branch after taking a witness statement from a ghost. Recruited by DCI Thomas Nightingale, the last officially sanctioned wizard in England, Peter is thrown into a world of river goddesses, vampires, faceless magicians and baffling supernatural crime scenes. Across the novels collected here - Moon Over Soho, Whispers Underground, Broken Homes, Foxglove Summer, The Hanging Tree, Lies Sleeping, False Value and Amongst Our Weapons - the series widens its scope, taking Peter from Soho jazz clubs to the London Underground, from Herefordshire farmland to tech firms, all while he juggles fieldcraft training, office politics and a slowly unravelling conspiracy involving the sinister Faceless Man. The set also includes shorter works - What Abigail Did That Summer, The Furthest Station, The October Man and Winter's Gifts - which flesh out supporting characters and side plots between the main novels. Aaronovitch's background as a television and Doctor Who screenwriter shows in his sharp dialogue, tight plotting and dry London humour, while his evident love of the city's history and architecture gives every book a rich sense of place. It's a series that rewards reading in order, and this set gives fans an easy, affordable way to do exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete 13-title paperback collection in one convenient bundle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes all main novels plus companion novellas and short stories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWitty, fast-paced urban fantasy blended with sharp police procedural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal gift for fans of Ben Aaronovitch, Jim Butcher and Terry Pratchett\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new condition, ready to read or gift straight away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBen Aaronovitch was born in London in 1964 and began his career as a screenwriter for Doctor Who and Casualty before turning to novels.
