‘Maps of London’
This week’s Incomparable is a nice, spoiler-light tour through urban fantasy novels set in London, including works by Neil Gaiman, Paul Cornell, and Ben Aaronovitch. I got some great reading suggestions out of it and I think you will, too.
London is a thriving modern metropolis, but beneath its streets and behind its doors are ancient, magical secrets. In this episode, a group of (North) Americans discuss some of our favorite London-based urban fantasy novels. This is a spoiler-light episode, so listen in and get ready to add a whole bunch of books to your to-read list. Plus, what are we reading?
