"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.īook Description Hardback. This is a tight thriller that is compelling and buckets of fun. The Bookbag Ben Aaronovitch is a master of metropolitan magical mayhem and the action is delightful. There again, so have most of the previous books in the series and the odds are the next one probably will be too. Crime Scene The Hanging Tree is definitely one of the best in the Grant/Aaronovitch pantheon. As for Grant, he's a wonderful blend of laconic copper and, methodically researching how magic works, full-on nerd. This series is brilliant! - Teen Librarian Aaronovitch deftly balances urban fantasy with the police procedural. He still lives in London, the city he likes to refer to as 'the capital of the world'. His Peter Grant novels have been hugely successful and he now writes full time.

He has written for many TV series including Doctor Who and been a bookseller. Ben Aaronovitch grew up as part of a famously engaged and lively North London family.
