Yet another corker of a page turner from Aaronovitch. This had wit and charm and kept me up late at night which is all you can ask of a book. This is what urban fantasy should be, barely a whiny teenager in sight. This whole series is highly recommended.

Re-read 2021 - I would probably upgrade this one to a 5 star now. It has certainly aged like fine wine. On original reading I didn't see the twist coming but on this careful re-read I could see it all being set up nicely and appreciate the craft of how it was done. The theme for this one is missed opportunities, I would say and it really resonates.
