About this listen

Neverwhere meets Rivers of London in this fast-paced urban fantasy about friendship, family secrets, and the perils of dating the undead.

Lili O’Reilly and her beloved cat, Grimm, live happily together on a quiet Liverpool back street above the coffee shop Lili runs with her best friend, Izzy.

But everything changes the day Lili wakes up with a sore head and no pulse. When she accidentally murders someone—not a very nice someone, but a someone all the same—Lili has to consider that maybe she’s no longer entirely human. And as the inhabitants of the city’s underworld start taking an interest, Lili is forced to fight for her (after)life.

Discover a magical world hidden in plain sight—a world where immortals jostle for power, and history tangles with mythology. A world in which the spirit of a city is the highest power of all.

I loved the story but also the geographic references to Liverpool. I'm looking forward to getting to know the characters, and enjoyed the thought of further back story for each. the plot was well paced and struck the right balance of pathos and funny. I liked that the netherworld fits in with this one without too much pearl-clutching or disbelief. :)

Great urban fantasy.

Strangely relatable and thoroughly enjoyable. It’s unlike anything else. I’m not usually a fan of supernatural stuff but this is written in a way that pulls you in and leaves you wanting more. So excited for the rest of the series.

Blends life and afterlife so well.

Read this series earlier in the year and loved them. Narrator really fits the book. Can we have the rest done soon please? No pressure! (Love the unexpected Pratchett references too!)

Love the series & the narrator does it full justice.
