About the author

Ben Aaronovitch's career started with a bang writing for Doctor Who, subsided in the middle and then, as is traditional, a third act resurgence with the bestselling Rivers of London series.

Born and raised in London he says that he'll leave his home when they prise his city out of his cold dead fingers.

A "moment" with Augustus Berrycloth-Young onboard a ship on his way to America. There he meets Mabel, a ghost. Precedes the novel The Masquerades of Spring.

Read it online. I enjoy this word, even if it's random little snippets about minor characters, but Mabel was a fun ghost!

[Jessica Patzer · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think Berrycloth-Young is overly verbose, but the story was nice enough. I liked Mabel.

I absolutely loved it! The short stories are awesome! I hope a Vol 2 will be in the works sometime in the future! This is a must read series! I can’t wait for the next stories!

I wouldn't mind a full novella about Mabel. She seems fun and zappy.
