whispers under ground by ben aaronovitch

Aaronovitch has established a set of likeable three-dimensional characters who inhabit a rich urban fantasy world. This is another great volume in the Peter Grant series. Now I wonder if in the next sequel the British Museum of Natural History will come to life at night? If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Whispers Under Ground? At times Leslie's nasal lisp was a bit hard to understand though. Mr Holdbrook-Smith's performance was again very good and enjoyable. What three words best describe Kobna Holdbrook-Smith’s voice? The introducing chapter was interesting and one thought it would be put to use in some way over the span of the story but it came back at the very end with a little twist but had nothing to do with the main storyline. The description of the rummaging through the sewers was too long and did not really develop in anything to help the unfolding of the story. What was most disappointing about Ben Aaronovitch’s story? I missed the spunk and funk from the first two books. What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Time to call in PC Peter Grant, Britain's Last Wizard. Time to call in the Met's Economic and Specialist Crime Unit 9, aka 'The Folly'. And delays on the Northern line is the very least of it. Now something horrible is happening in the labyrinth of tunnels that make up the tube system that honeycombs the ancient foundations of London. The last person he fell for ended up seriously dead. A department that if you did describe it to most people would get you laughed at.

A department that doesn't even officially exist.

Especially when you work in a department of two.

Progression in the Police Force is less easy. And it's just as well - he's already had run-ins with the deadly supernatural children of the Thames and a terrifying killer in Soho. Doctor Who Screenwriter Ben Aaronovitch's superbly entertaining supernatural crime series has, with its witty one-liners and wonderfully erudite take on London, won a legion of fans in double quick time.
