I had higher hopes for it but when I was finished with it, it was like a meal where the portion was slightly too small. The ravenous hunger is gone but there is still an appetite left, You had something nice but somehow it wasn't entirely satisfying. That is the analogy I can think of. <br />The police procedural was good, the characters interesting, but the main ingredient, the crime mystery, was lacking in substance.<br /><br />Though I will still get book number 4, since the overall story arch and the main protagonists are still interesting.Sascha Walternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17224228.post-13090123834548792772012-09-28T13:42:25.208-07:002012-09-28T13:42:25.208-07:00I've been enjoying this series, and hope to ge...I've been enjoying this series, and hope to get a copy of this 3rd book soon. I'm rarely interested in police procedurals, and I'm not super into Urban Fantasy, but i can't get enough of Ben Aaronovitch! really goes to show that if it's an excellent book, the genre or subgenre doesn't matter.redheadhttp://littleredreviewer.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
