ICYMI: Two New RIVERS OF LONDON RPG Modules Out Now!


In case you missed it, Chaosium has published two more modules for their Rivers of London roleplaying game! Based on the series by Ben Aaronovitch, THE FONT OF ALL EVIL and JIMMY’S LAST DANCE are out now!

Here’s the synopsis for THE FONT OF ALL EVIL, written by Paul Baldowski and Lynne Hardy…

Thursday 19th May, 2016: you have been called in to investigate a gruesome murder scene in Ealing, West London.

The local police were so concerned by the odd nature of the victim’s injuries that they called in the Folly to investigate. But how did the victim die? Why does their home look like a hoarder’s nest? Most importantly: why would somebody want them dead?

… and for JIMMY’S LAST DANCE, written by Adam Gauntlett, Paul Fricker, Lynne Hardy

Summer, 2016: you have been called in to investigate a violent assault at an address in Putney, Southwest London.

The person of interest was described by an eyewitness as “something straight out of one of those pirate films.”

Can the investigators track him down before he strikes again?

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

The next book in the series is the eleventh novel, STONE AND SKY, due to be published by Orion and DAW Books, in July 2025 (cover reveal soon!).

RIVERS OF LONDON RPG Out This Week!


The new RPG based on Ben Aaronovitch‘s Rivers of London novels is out this week! Created/written by Paul Fricker, Lynne Hardy and more, and published by Chaosium, RIVERS OF LONDON is due to be released on Wednesday (November 30th). A must for fans of the series and roleplaying games.

In Rivers of London: the Roleplaying Game, players take on the roles of newly recruited members of the London Metropolitan Police Service’s special magic branch, aka “the Folly.” You will solve mysteries, catch criminals, and come to grips with the “demi-monde”—those who have been irreversibly changed by magic.

The RPG is available first as a PDF edition. If you purchase the PDF edition directly from the publisher, that price will be deducted from the hardcover edition when it is available.

The best-selling and critically-acclaimed Rivers of London novels and novellas are published in the UK by Gollancz/Orion; in North America by JABberwocky (#1-3), DAW Books (#4 onwards), and Subterranean Press (novellas); in Germany by DTV; and widely elsewhere in translation. The latest novel is AMONGST OUR WEAPONS.
