On the plus side, I am very much enjoying Rivers of London. Having read quite a few British cop procedurals, I really enjoy the slang and cop talk coupled with the wizarding aspects.

The Furies didn't really do it for me. I read them, but find them mediocre, especially compared to his other books. The Aeronaut's Windlass took a little time to get into, but not that long. There were some characters I really didn't like and I ended up caring for them.
I like, but not enjoyed, Rivers of London. However, currently I am reading Moon over Soho (Peter Grant part 2) and I enjoy it much, much more!
