1 | Something Changed | 2005 | Description / Buy |
Aaronovitch’s most notable books are The Doctor Who novelizations (n.b. Remembrance of the Daleks), his three Doctor Who spin-off novels in the Virgin New Adventures series and six novels from the Rivers of London series (n.b. the sixth one, The Hanging Tree is scheduled for publishing in January 2017).
BEN AARONOVITCH AWARDS
Aaronovitch’s novel The Rivers Of London received very positive feedback from the critics and was subsequently nominated for the Galaxy National Book Award in the New Writer Of The Year category. The series is not yet completed, so its true literary value can only be appreciated after some time.

BEST BEN AARONOVITCH BOOKS
Aaronovitch’s best literary works include the Rivers of London series of novels and his Doctor Who novelization Remembrance of the Daleks.
The Rivers of London tells a story of Peter Grant, a Metropolitan Police officer who is recruited into a special detachment of the London’s Metropolitan Police Service that deals with paranormal cases. Grant’s job is to investigate a series of recent crimes in which someone or something is turning ordinary people into ruthless killers. At the same time, Grant has to negotiate peace between two gods who rule the Thames and are locked in a bitter feud. Even thought these two tasks do not seem related at all, Grant will have to discover that they have very much in common indeed. The Rivers of London was published in 2011 and it the first novel in the series of the same name (it is followed by Moon Over Soho, Whispers Under Ground, Broken Homes and Foxglove Summer.)
In his second work, the Remembrance of the Daleks, the main protagonist called “The Doctor” travels back in 1963 to retrieve a powerful device called the Hand of Omega to keep it from the Daleks who are in the state of a civil war. Araronovitch wrote the Remembrance Of The Daleks when he was only 25. It was the first series in the 25th season of the show and Aaronovitch used this opportunity to incorporate many references to past episodes of the show into the story. His work on the story received positive reviews from the audience and critics alike as Aaronovitch reintroduced mystery and magic into the series. His greatest credit was that the was able to do it with intelligence and revisionist continuity.

Love the novels and novellas, though I could dispense with the swearing. Looking forward to “Amongst our Weapons”. Any idea when it will reach the South Island of New Zealand? All too often things get to Auckland and stop. Which novel, short story, graphic or otherwise has the mishaps/adventures of Peter i Kew Gardens? Thank you for your answers.
