Ben Aaronovitch’s DIE FÜCHSE VON HAMPSTEAD HEATH Out Now in Audio!

Posted on Tuesday, November 16th, 2021

The audiobook edition of Ben Aaronovitch‘s DIE FÜCHSE VON HAMPSTEAD HEATH is out now! The German edition of WHAT ABIGAIL DID THAT SUMMER, it is published by GoyaLiT, and narrated by Dietmar Wunder.

Es ist Ferienzeit in London und Abigail, Peter Grants lästige Cousine, kann mehr oder weniger tun und lassen, was sie will. Was bei allen, die sie kennen, eigentlich die Alarmglocken schrillen lassen sollte. Doch Peter ist irgendwo auf dem Land auf Einhornjagd, sodass niemand Abigail davon abhält, magischen Unfug zu treiben — und einem Geheimnis auf die Spur zu kommen: In der Gegend von Hampstead Heath verschwinden immer wieder Teenager. Nach kurzer Zeit tauchen sie wieder auf, unverletzt, aber ohne eine Erinnerung, wo sie waren. Wer hat sie fortgelockt — und warum? Unterstützt von einer Bande sprechender (und ziemlich eingebildeter) Füchse stürzt sich Abigail ins magische Abenteuer.

It is published in the UK by Gollancz and in North America by Subterranean Press. It is the first novella set in the Rivers of London world to star Abigail Kamara.

DIE FÜCHSE VON HAMPSTEAD HEATH and Ben’s other Rivers of London novels and novellas are also all published in Germany in print and eBook, by DTV. GoyaLiT has also published them all as audiobooks in Germany.

Aaronovitch & Cartmel’s DIE FLÜSSE VON LONDON: MOTOREN, MAGIE UND MÄRCHEN is Out Tomorrow!

Posted on Monday, August 30th, 2021

The eighth collected story arc in Ben Aaronovitch and Andrew Cartmel‘s acclaimed Rivers of London comics series, THE FEY AND THE FURIOUS, is available tomorrow in Germany! Published by Panini as DIE FLÜSSE VON LONDON: MOTOREN, MAGIE UND MÄRCHEN, here’s the synopsis…

Neue Fälle für Star — Ermittler Peter Grant!

Man sagt: „Der geplatzte Reifen ist nie weit von der Rennstrecke entfernt.“ Vielleicht sagt man das auch nicht, aber wenn das Rennauto eines jungen, aufstrebenden Rennfahrers aus England in den Niederlanden angespült wird und eine gänzlich ungewöhnliche Fracht enthält, muss man als Ermittler zumindest nicht lange darüber nachdenken, ob man die Geschehnisse eines illegalen Straßenrennens in Essex genauer unter die Lupe nehmen sollte.

Also begibt sich Detective Inspector Peter Grant in seinem orangefarbenen ‘asbo’ Ford Focus auf die Strecke, um die Rennszene von innen zu durchleuchten. Peter merkt schnell, dass die illegale Rennszene ein eigenes Reich ist … fast schon ein magisches Märchenland! Im neusten Fall des zaubernden Ermittlers Peter Grant verbindet Ben Aaronovitch einmal mehr seine Liebe für Krimi, Magie und schnelle Autos zu einer großartigen Geschichte.

The first seven collected editions are also available in Germany, published by Panini.

All of the Rivers of London comics (collections and single issues) are published in the UK and North America by Titan Comics — including the newest story arc: MONDAY, MONDAY. Here’s the English-language synopsis for THE FEY AND THE FURIOUS…

Detective Inspector Peter Grant is back in an all-new comic miniseries from author Ben Aaronovitch!

Trouble never lies far from the race track. When a flash car belonging to a young boy racer from England washes up in the Netherlands with a bagload of unusual cargo, it’s evident there is more than meets the eye happening at street races held in an Essex car park.

Enter Detective Inspector Peter Grant. Fresh from suspension, he takes to the track in his orange ‘asbo’ Ford Focus to try and infiltrate the big leagues. But Peter soon finds himself sucked back into an Otherworld — a real-life fairyland!

Newcomers to the Rivers of London comics, novels and novellas might find this new readers guide/chronology handy…

All of Ben’s Rivers of London novels and novellas are published in Germany by DTV.

The novels and novellas are published in the UK by Gollancz. The novels are published in North America by Del Rey (1-3), DAW Books (4-) and Subterranean Press (novellas).

The bookstore smash-hit returns for a brand-new story, picking up the threads from the most recent bestselling Rivers of London novel, The Hanging Tree!

Vengeful Russian mobsters are looking to hire members of London’s own more-then-natural underworld to bring bloody retribution down on the witch Varvara. However, the ex-Soviet sorcerer is under the protective wing of London’s own wizarding cop, Peter Grant (now a proper detective and everything), and to get the attention of Grant and his colleagues, the daughter of a prominent Russian oligarch is kidnapped by parties unknown but possibly fox-like.

What makes it worse is that Peter is going to have to leave his beloved London and gasp go out into the countryside! And when there’s trees and fields and wildlife involved, things never end well…

The comic series is set in the same world as Ben’s Peter Grant/Rivers of London fiction series, which is published in Germany by DTV, in the UK by Gollancz, in North America by Del Rey (1-3), DAW Books (4-), and Subterranean Press (novellas).

Eyes Open: Peter Grant Invades Germany’s U-Bahn!

Posted on Tuesday, September 8th, 2020

We are very grateful to Elisa for sharing with us photos of these posters for Ben Aaronovitch‘s two latest books in Germany! Up in various subway stations, we think that’s rather excellent, and wanted to share them here, too.

Peter Grant ist suspendiert…

Peter Grant, unser Londoner Lieblings-Bobby und Zauberlehrling, steht vor völlig neuen privaten Herausforderungen. Welche ihn zu gleichen Teilen mit Panik und Begeisterung erfüllen. Beruflich bekommt er es mit der Serious Cybernetics Corporation zu tun, dem neuesten Projekt des Internet-Genies Terrence Skinner. Und prompt holt die Magie ihn wieder ein.

Peter Grant is facing fatherhood, and an uncertain future, with equal amounts of panic and enthusiasm.

Leaving his old police life behind, he takes a job with Silicon Valley tech genius Terrence Skinner’s new London start up: the Serious Cybernetics Corporation.

Drawn into the orbit of Old Street’s famous ‘silicon roundabout’, Peter must learn how to blend in with people who are both civilians and geekier than he is. Compared to his last job, Peter thinks it should be a doddle.

But magic is not finished with the Met’s first trainee wizard in fifty years…

Because a secret is hiding somewhere in the building. A technology that stretches back to Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage, and forward to the future of artificial intelligence. A secret that is just as magical as it technological – and twice as dangerous.

Finally, here’s the poster graphic…

New Rivers of London Omnibus Edition out in Germany!

Posted on Friday, August 21st, 2020

The first two novels in Ben Aaronovitch‘s internationally-bestselling Peter Grant/Rivers of London series are published in Germany today in a new omnibus edition! Published by DTV, the two novels are: DIE FLÜSSE VON LONDON and SCHWARZER MOND ÜBER SOHO. Here’s the new edition’s synopsis, which is a great place for new readers to start…

Der Doppelband für Neueinsteiger

Die Anfänge der unglaublichen Laufbahn des Peter Grant, seines Zeichens Police Constable in London − mit einer ausgeprägten Begabung fürs Magische. Ein Umstand, der seinen Vorgesetzten nicht entgeht. Und schon nimmt Peters Karriere eine gänzlich unerwartete Wendung: Er wird Zauberlehrling, der erste in England seit fünfzig Jahren! Das große Abenteuer beginnt.

DTV has published all of Ben’s novels and novellas in Germany, in print and audiobook. The eight novel, FALSE VALUE, is due to be published in Germany as EIN WEISSER SCHWAN IN TABERNACLE STREET, on October 23rd.

The series is published in the UK by Gollancz: RIVERS OF LONDON, MOON OVER SOHO, WHISPERS UNDERGROUND, BROKEN HOMES, FOXGLOVE SUMMER, LIES SLEEPING, FALSE VALUE.

Here’s the English-language synopsis for book one (in case you’ve somehow managed to miss this series)…

My name is Peter Grant and until January I was just probationary constable in that mighty army for justice known to all right-thinking people as the Metropolitan Police Service (and as the Filth to everybody else). My only concerns in life were how to avoid a transfer to the Case Progression Unit – we do paperwork so real coppers don’t have to – and finding a way to climb into the panties of the outrageously perky WPC Leslie May. Then one night, in pursuance of a murder inquiry, I tried to take a witness statement from someone who was dead but disturbingly voluble, and that brought me to the attention of Inspector Nightingale, the last wizard in England.

Now I’m a Detective Constable and a trainee wizard, the first apprentice in fifty years, and my world has become somewhat more complicated: nests of vampires in Purley, negotiating a truce between the warring god and goddess of the Thames, and digging up graves in Covent Garden… and there’s something festering at the heart of the city I love, a malicious vengeful spirit that takes ordinary Londoners and twists them into grotesque mannequins to act out its drama of violence and despair.

The spirit of riot and rebellion has awakened in the city, and it’s falling to me to bring order out of chaos – or die trying.
