Book Review of Rivers of London

Rivers of London
reviewed on + 19 more book reviews


The book starts very well as we discover with the main character the occult part of that world. The British humor works well and if you know London, the street and site references are fun.
However, 2/3 into the novel, the magic stops working (pun intended).
As we get closer to solving the mystery, the jokes fall flat and the character development disappears.
I finished the book hoping for a comeback but it did not happen for me.
The series is very successful so this book must works for a lot of people. It did not work for me unfortunately.
