ICYMI: Ben Aaronovitch’s STONE & SKY, out in July!


STONE & SKY, Ben Aaronovitch‘s tenth Rivers of London novel now has a cover! Unveiled yesterday by Gollancz/Orion, here’s the synopsis…

‘This isn’t London. The rules are different up here, and so are the allegiances.’

Detective Sergeant Peter Grant takes a much-needed holiday up in Scotland. And he’ll need one when this is over…

If more’s the merrier, then it’s ecstatic as his partner Beverley, their young twins, his mum, dad, his dad’s band and their dodgy manager all tag along. Even his boss, DCI Thomas Nightingale, takes in the coastal airs as he trains Peter’s cousin Abigail in the arcane arts.

And they’ll need them too, because Scotland’s Granite City has more than its fair share of history and mystery, myth… and murder.

When a body is found in a bus stop, fresh from the sea, the case smells fishy from the off.

Something may be stirring beyond the bay – but there’s something far stranger in the sky…

To be published on July 3rd, in the UK, the novel will be available in hardcover, eBook, and as an audiobook — read once again by the ever-excellent Kobna Holdbrook-Smith! The novel is also due to be published in North America, by DAW Books, on July 8th.
