Rivers of London

This is the beginning of an excellent series, which manages to combine a police procedural with the supernatural to great effect. What really lift these stories into the sublime, however, are the audiobooks, which feature a standout performance by Kobna Holdbrook-Smith. He manages to perfectly capture Peter Grant, while at the same time personifying a whole smorgasbord of additional characters. A real tour-de-force.

Update: Since I initially listened to the audiobook, I though I'd re-read the written version to compare. Fortunately I can report that it is just are good without the reassuring tones of Kobna Holdbrook-Smith. Having said that, I am now so used to hearing Kobna's narration that I “heard” the book in his voice regardless.
