Author Ben Aaronovitch on London Library Tour

Ben Aaronovitch, best-selling author of the Rivers of London books, is going on a London Library Tour. At most of the events he's talking about his latest book, Amongst our Weapons, but he's also offering help to people on writing courses. I'm a huge fan of Ben's fiction because I love the way he describes the city I live in. He really knows London and his books reflect that as well as offering an alternative view in which goddesses and spirits inhabit both the natural world and the modern built environment. 

I'm also very proud to have had the privilege of working with Ben on Rivers of London: The Roleplaying Game, published by Chaosium. 

Most of the stops on the London Library Tour are free and anyone can come along, but you will probably need to reserve a place to make sure you get a seat. Tickets are likely to go fast! I've listed the tour dates below with links, but you can also find info on Ben's website.
