Rivers of London Vol. 8: The Fey and the Furious by Andrew Cartmel, Ben Aaronovitch
4.0
MUCH better than the previous volume. Peter helps investigate a murder that's associated with road racing...being run by the fey. Great illustrations, lots of action, unique characters, and a fun conclusion. LOVED this one!

Fortunately/unfortunately, it's comprised of graphic novels, novellas, and novels. Aaronovitch clearly had more material than would fit in his novels, so he inserted his 'extra' stories using other means, and references them. Decide just to read the novels? You'll wonder about some of the references from the graphic novels. Want to just read the graphic novels? No, no, no. The GOOD news is that it's worth it to read all of them. You can find the overall reading order for all 3 types of stories HERE. Overall, this is a fantastic series & I love them.
