New RIVERS OF LONDON Graphic Novel Boxset in Three Weeks!

Posted on Friday, August 26th, 2022

The third Rivers of London graphic novel boxset is due out in three weeks! Collecting the acclaimed seventh, eighth, and ninth collections — ACTION AT A DISTANCE, THE FEY AND THE FURIOUS, and MONDAY, MONDAY — it is due out on October 12th, published by Titan Comics. Written by Ben Aaronovitch and Andrew Cartmel, and with artwork from an all-star team, here’s the synopsis…

A stunning box set edition of the bestselling graphic novels in the Rivers of London series, starring Ben Aaronovitch’s laconic trainee wizard and budding detective, Peter Grant.

Vol 7: Action at a Distance

Thomas Nightingale is a man of immense power, one of the most highly revered magicians in Europe, but with a guarded past. Hidden within the archives of London Metropolitan Police’s Special Assessment Unit, Detective Constable Peter Grant is about to uncover a brief glimpse into his mentor’s history.

Vol 8: The Fey and the Furious

When a Mitsubishi Eclipse washes up on the shores of the Netherlands, officers are surprised to find some unusual cargo in its boot. Fortunately, unusual cargo just so happens to be wizarding-cop Peter Grant’s speciality. Infiltrating illegal street races, Peter hopes to find the supplier, but instead quickly finds himself speeding into a whole new world of trouble, where old enemies await.

Vol 9: Monday, Monday

What starts as a routine undercover operation to break up an organised teenage pickpocket gang turns into something far more dangerous when the Metropolitan police are confronted by a Swedish werewolf who’ll stop at nothing to avoid capture. Now it’s up to full-time cop and part-time wizard Peter Grant and his cohort of chums to hunt the deadly lycanthrope and bring him to heel!

The first two boxsets are available now, published by Titan Comics. The latest story-arc in the Rivers of London series — DEADLY EVER AFTER, co-authored also by Celeste Bronfman — is available now in single issues (collected edition out soon).

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!
