That one was great! Loved seeing Peter do some magic. And the story was a wonderful mixture of horror and mystery and humor. The resolution was quite poetic.

Again, another tie-in-that's-not-a-tie-in story where we follow Peter Grant in graphic form as he battles household mould. This story is better than the previous two graphic novel compilations - more consistency and easier to follow. The characters are your main characters as well, so it feels more connected to the main series (including seeing Sahra Guleed as an actual contributing member of the team that is reflected in the main books).
I still felt this wasn't quite worth my time given Aaronovitch is using tie-in references in the main series just to get us to read the expanded series. It is a tie-in, and references are reflected in the main series, but yet you don't need to read this for the main series to fully make sense. It's all a bit confusing, but glad this side-series is getting a bit better.
