Tales From the Folly, by Ben Aaronovitch

This short story collection is set in the world of the Rivers of London, half featuring Peter Grant and half other characters. The tales feature less of the dark violence that is a hallmark of the series, but just as much of the sardonic wit. This gives a lighter tone overall than the novels and novellas. A couple of the ‘others’ stories have been previously published along with an earlier novella, but most are new and fill in little gaps in the Rivers’ saga. They provide an enjoyable stopgap for Rivers of London addicts while waiting for the next full tale to hit the shelves.
