Summary

Return to the world of Rivers of London in this first short-story collection from number one Sunday Times best-selling author Ben Aaronovitch. Tales from the Folly is a carefully curated collection that gathers together previously published stories and brand new tales in the same place for the first time.

Each tale features a new introduction from the author, filled with insight and anecdote offering the listener a deeper exploration into this absorbing fictional world. This is a must-listen for any Rivers of London fan.

Join Peter, Nightingale, Abigail, Agent Reynolds and Tobias Winter for a series of perfectly portioned tales. Discover what's haunting a lonely motorway service station, who still wanders the shelves of a popular London bookshop and what exactly happened to the River Lugg.

With an introduction from internationally best-selling author of the Sookie Stackhouse series, Charlaine Harris.

This collection includes:

  • 'The Home Crowd Advantage'
  • 'The Domestic'
  • 'The Cockpit'
  • 'The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Granny'
  • 'King of the Rats'
  • 'A Rare Book of Cunning Device'
  • 'A Dedicated Follower of Fashion'
  • 'Favourite Uncle'
  • 'Vanessa Sommer's Other Christmas List'
  • 'Three Rivers, Two Husbands and a Baby'

What a joy it was to drop back into the world of the Folly and all of the wonderful characters there. The introduction matches my thoughts exactly. Ahh, wonderful!

I have listened more than once to every book. This series is great, funny, clever and a great listen. But the actor reading the story is the best! Have read the books in print and the audio book is actually better! Have read them all, love the series. Would listen again. Always come back and read when I need an easy listen that’s also fun in an amazingly in depth world.

Love them!

Just a bit of fun between the main Rivers of London books. I particularly enjoyed Abigail's perspective so will look forward to the next novella What Abigail did last Summer.
