Review: Rivers of London: Action at a Distance

Rivers of London Volume 7: Action at a Distance
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rivers of London: Action at a Distance is the seventh collected volume of the Rivers of London comic book. This volume is made up of four issues of the comic book.

In a Harry Dresden meets Springheel Jack tale Nightingale mourns the loss of a friend while Peter reads of them pursuing the nefarious Fischer from Windscale to London and back again.

At last a story where Nightingale is the protagonist! I've been waiting for this for a while now and was not disappointed. Nightingale as a protagonist is witty, charming, ruthless and has more tricks up his sleeve than Paul Daniels.

I liked this a lot, in fact it's fair to say this is probably my favourite RoL graphic novel so far. We're also treated to a new artist for this volume with Brian Williamson doing the honours.

Like the others this isn't essential reading but it is a ripping good yarn.
