À propos de cet audio
There is a world hidden underneath this great city.
The London Silver Vaults—for well over a century, the largest collection of silver for sale in the world. It has more locks than the Bank of England and more cameras than a paparazzi convention.
Not somewhere you can murder someone and vanish without a trace—only that’s what happened.
The disappearing act, the reports of a blinding flash of light, and memory loss amongst the witnesses all make this a case for Detective Constable Peter Grant and the Special Assessment Unit.
Alongside their boss DCI Thomas Nightingale, the SAU find themselves embroiled in a mystery that encompasses London’s tangled history, foreign lands and, most terrifying of all, the North!
And Peter must solve this case soon, because back home his partner Beverley is expecting twins any day now. But what he doesn’t know is that he’s about to encounter something—and somebody—that nobody ever expects…
Effortlessly original, endlessly inventive and hugely entertaining—step into the world of the much-loved, bestselling Rivers of London series.
Ce que les critiques en disent
Praise for the Rivers of London series
“A low-income housing tower gone awry, an old enemy with a bone to pick...and a shocker of an ending—Broken Homes is a delight.” —Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times-bestselling author
“The most entertaining book that I have read in such a long time.... It’s very funny, it’s very clever, it’s very nicely written.... It’s such a treat.” —Nancy Pearl, bestselling author
“This series is a constant joy to read....I’ve been looking forward all year to find out what happened next, and the book did not disappoint.” —Genevieve Cogman, author of The Invisible Library
“The prose is witty, the plot clever, and the characters incredibly likeable.” —Time Out
“Aaronovitch showcases a superlative blend of whimsy and grit in the eighth Rivers of London urban fantasy.... Jim Butcher meets Douglas Adams in this winning series installment.” —Publishers Weekly (starred)
“Amongst Our Weapons will clearly appeal to the legions of Aaronovitch fans, but those unfamiliar with the series will find a playful mix of the supernatural and the historical within in an intriguing murder mystery.” —The Canberra Times
“The perfect blend of CSI and Harry Potter.” —io9
“This book is, at its heart, a police procedural with an overlay of urban fantasy elements. The voice is persuasive and funny as all get-out, and the reader is engaged with the narrative from the very first page. Aaronovitch has written a diverse cast of characters who all feel like real people with their own specific motivations. This book is simply wonderful.” —RT Reviews (top pick)

Great Story,Great Narrator

Admittedly I wanted more of Nightingale, but that is a near constant refrain of mine.
However, while there were some pacing issues (mid book), I found the new antagonists to be intriguing, and the hints of the future of this world interesting, so it looks like the series will continue to be a strong one.
As ever, excellently narrated by Kobna Holbrook Smith (and the way he changed the pronounciation of both his name and the author's I felt had to be an injoke between them both?)
Interesting + Enjoyable
