Part murder mystery and urban fantasy with humor all over, Midnight Riot is a fresh debut novel. I enjoyed the way the police procedural was woven in with magic and mythology of London. I'm always happy to see an author's take on how magic works and the spins they put on things.
And I'm sure anyone that's been to, or lives in, London will appreciate the details of the city. However, if you're not somewhat familiar with the Queen's English, you may find yourself not knowing a few terms here and there. You can generally get the feeling of it in context, so don't worry!
The book keeps a good pace going with a couple of twists which kept me reading much past bedtime to see what happened next.
