Ben Aaronovitch best books, ranked

Ben Aaronovitch — 8 titles in the rankings, first published between 2011 and 2025. They average 8.0, above the 7.8 the whole catalogue averages. One series has a reading order worth keeping to.

Editor’s note Almost everything here is Rivers of London, about Peter Grant, a London police constable who becomes an apprentice wizard. The first book is the lowest-rated; the series rises to Foxglove Summer (5) and stays high. Read in order — the main plot runs across books. Novellas and comics fill the gaps.
