Trade Review
This gloriously eclectic mash-up of police investigation and supernatural insanity is as wise, witty and utterly absorbing as the rest of this glorious series. * Daily Mail *
This might be Aaronovitch's greatest success yet. 5 stars! * The Sun *
Aaronovitch has no peers [...] his plotting is still satisfyingly inventive and the continuing characters maintain their charm. * The Guardian *
Ben Aaronovitch has created a wonderful world full of mystery, magic and fantastic characters. I love being there more than the real London. * Nick Frost *
Fresh and original and a wonderful read. I loved it. * Charlaine Harris *
A charming, witty and exciting romp through a magical world not all that far from our own. * The Independent *
