Readers who are already hooked on the books will enjoy this series; readers who haven t yet discovered Rivers of London will find this a good introduction.” - Fangirl Nation “Body Work is a delightful continuation of Aaronovitch s story, capturing the spirit and tone of the novels and bringing them to life with what is essentially a quick crash course in the world of Rivers Of London for the uninitiated.” - Geeky Girls Love Sci Fi “The magic or falcon, as police slang would have it is pleasingly grounded here, creating a world of subtle intricacies rather than dazzling fireworks, and the supernatural is blended into the police procedural with satisfying realism. The characters are familiar but engaging enough, and the art does much to make each face distinctive and expressive as well as give the story its down-to-earth sturdiness.” - Booklist” –Booklist”
