In this month’s episode…

We continue our three part look at the Rivers Of London novellas by Ben Aaronovitch that have been published so far, with The October Man.

For the first time in the podcast we leave Peter, The Folly and London behind as we investigate uncanny events in Trier, Germany with a new team. We also discuss the nature of spin-offs more generally and are actually surprised in hindsight at how many new things we learn about the rules of the Rivers universe. Some have direct implications for the unfolding story in London, particularly the nature of River Gods and their offspring.

As a result, we totally forget to ask the most obvious question: who is the October Man?

Next episode: What Abigail Did That Summer.
