If "free" is your primary concern and "new" is secondary, or you are patient, your local library is the superhero you forgot about.

Digital library apps like Libby (OverDrive) and Hoopla allow you to borrow audiobooks instantly using your library card.

How to do it:

Caveat: The "new" part is tricky here. Libraries have limited budgets. While they will have book #1 (Rivers of London), the newest release might have a waitlist of 20+ people. But for the cost of $0, waiting a month is a fair trade.

The most reliable way to get a new copy of a Rivers of London audiobook for free is through Audible’s free trial. Because Amazon owns Audible, this is the most legitimate channel.

Here is the step-by-step process for 2024-2025:

Pro-Tip for the "New" part: If you want the latest book in the series (Amongst Our Weapons), use your credit on that specific title. Credits typically cover books that retail for up to $40, making this the best value.

Is it really free? Yes. As long as you remember to cancel, you pay $0 for the first book. However, note that you cannot get the entire series for free this way, as the trial only gives you one credit. But it solves the "new free" problem for one title.

A quick Google search for "rivers of london audiobook new free mp3 download" will lead you to shady websites ending in .ru, .to, or random blogspot pages.

Do not use these.

Here is why:

If you love PC Peter Grant, you want Ben to keep writing. Pirating the audiobook ensures that the "new" books stop coming out.
