I love these books.
As a Londoner (WC1/2 being my manor) living away from London, they make me terribly homesick!

Have you read the graphic novels OP?

BevBrook · 28/09/2018 09:08

Well I love it. Hence the name. I also like The Magicians as a similar magic is real premise, although without the police element.

Love it! The next one is coming out on 6 November too Grin

Love this series, did a reread of the whole lot recently, bliss! Rivers and Foxglove are my favourites.

I loved this series, bought multiple copies for friends & family & banged on about it for months at the time -I’m also jealous you have the rest to go, especially the first few..

However, there was a massive gap (timewise) before the release of the most recent book, which I didn’t finish as it was really disappointing/rambling/didn’t seem to be tying up loose ends (some of the ongoing plot lines just seem to go on and on with no resolution/answers? Or is that just me?).

Has anyone read the whole series to date and found the most recent one worth persevering with!?

Enjoyed all these so far.
SD I'd be interested in the recommendations. I try to read 50 books a year and am lagging right now.

I read the first one and felt a bit meh. it was OK, felt I was missing something.
I fell it should be right up my street, so I might try again.

I love this series. I'm waiting for the next novel to come out and in the meantime I'm reading the graphic novels

I read this recently - I got it from Waitrose all wrapped up in brown paper as a 'blind date with a book' so had no idea what I was buying. Really enjoyed it!

SD1978 · 28/09/2018 03:02

Yes, yes, yes. Adore this series. Would you like a few recommendations on a similar vein?

pumkinspicetime · 28/09/2018 02:59

Brilliant series, enjoy.

MipMipMip · 28/09/2018 02:51

Brilliant book.

PerspicaciaTick · 27/09/2018 23:50

Yes.
I am jealous that you still have the whole series ahead of you.
