The second Rivers of London comic series, NIGHT WITCH, is out now in Germany! Published by Panini as DIE FLÜSSE VON LONDON: DIE NACHTHEXE, here’s the synopsis…
DAS FOLLY IM MAGISCHEN KAMPF GEGEN DIE RUSSISCHE MAFIA!
Als die junge Tochter eines wohlhabenden russischen Oligarchen scheinbar von einem mythischen Monster entführt wird, sehen sich die Ermittler der Londoner Polizei für paranormale Fälle – Peter Grant und sein Boss Thomas Nightingale – gezwungen bei der Suche zu helfen. Es dauert nicht lange, da befinden sie sich im Kreuzfeuer russischer Banden und stehen einer monströsen Waldkreatur sowie ihrem Erzfeind, dem Gesichtslosen Magier, gegenüber.
Written by Ben Aaronovitch and Andrew Cartmel, with artwork by Lee Sullivan and colours by Luis Guerrero, the best-selling series is published in English by Titan Comics, and recently completed its seventh story-arc, ACTION AT A DISTANCE. Here’s the English-language synopsis for NIGHT WITCH…
Press-ganged into helping a Russian oligarch hunt his missing daughter, PC Peter Grant and his boss, Thomas Nightingale, London’s only wizarding cops, find themselves caught up in a battle between Russian gunmen, a monstrous forest creature — and their nemesis: The Faceless Man.
But as Grant and Nightingale close in on the missing girl, they discover that nothing about this case is what it seems!
Panini has also published the first story-arc, BODY WORK, in Germany as AUTOWAHN. The series is translated by Kerstin Fricke.
Ben’s Peter Grant series is published in the UK by Gollancz, and currently stands at seven novels and two novellas.
