Waiting on Wednesday 03/02/22
Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!

Amongst Our Weapons by Ben Aaronovitch (April 12, 2022 by DAW)
I’d known that the next Rivers of London novel was coming, but I just didn’t know when…until the cover caught my eye on Goodreads this week. Don’t you just love it when a highly anticipated release just sneaks up on you? Especially when there’s not that much longer to wait!
“The ninth novel of the bestselling Rivers of London urban fantasy series returns to the adventures of Peter Grant, detective and apprentice wizard, as he solves magical crimes in the city of London.
There is a world hidden underneath this great city.
The London Silver Vaults–for well over a century, the largest collection of silver for sale in the world. It has more locks than the Bank of England and more cameras than a celebrity punch-up. Not somewhere you can murder someone and vanish without a trace–only that’s what happened.
The disappearing act, the reports of a blinding flash of light and memory loss amongst the witnesses all make this a case for Detective Constable Peter Grant and the Special Assessment Unit.
Alongside their boss DCI Thomas Nightingale, the SAU find themselves embroiled in a mystery that encompasses London’s tangled history, foreign lands and, most terrifying of all, the North!
And Peter must solve this case soon because back home his partner Beverley is expecting twins any day now. But what he doesn’t know is that he’s about to encounter something–and somebody–that nobody ever expects…”
The ninth? Yikes.. I need to check out book one first!

Do you think this is one of those series where it’s best to start at the beginning?

Definitely! You’ll be pretty lost if you jumped in the middle. It’s one of those series where the later books really build on the earlier ones.
