This book is kind of like Paddington in that it's an unapologetic love letter to London and its landmarks and history. And there's also a lot of murder, urban decay, esoteric folklore, mild cosmic horror and rats. So yeah, just like Paddington.

I listen through the audiobook in about a week, and nearly missed a flight because i was too engrossed in it. Dark at times, but the dreamlike world means that I could mostly leave it behind when getting back to the real world. I wish more fantasy stories ended like this one.
