It’s all gone to pot! London’s waterways have been overrun by a brutal and beautiful queenpin of crime. A menacing figure known only as the Hoodette is sending her henchmen along the river to distribute her new magically-produced drug. Unfortunately for them, the waterways are home to the Rivers of London – ancient gods and goddesses of the British capital who just so happen to have a very close friendship with the newly promoted Detective Constable Peter Grant and his mentor, Thomas Nightingale. In a gripping tale of cat and mouse from Rivers of London author Ben Aaronovitch and Andrew Cartmel (Doctor Who, The Vinyl Detective), with art by Lee Sullivan (Doctor Who, Transformers), Peter Grant encounters goblin girls and paintball-savvy goddesses as he tries to uncover the Hoodette’s true identity and find her supply. Collects Rivers of London: Water Weed #1-4. “A series that always entertains, and never disappoints.” – Nerdly
