The River of Silver by S. A. Chakraborty is related to The Daevabad Trilogy. This book contains chapters that didn't make it into the orignal and contains more back story or further adventures. I found the Daevabad Trilogy books a sumptuous feast and The River of Silver to be a leftover crumbs. It less satisfying than the trilogy, but it you love the characters, and I do, some is better than none.
Here are my reviews of the The City of Brass, The Kingdom of Copper, and The Empire of Gold: https://barbpruittwrites.blogspot.com/search?q=Daevabad

Robert Thorogood's cozy murder mystery The Marlow Murder Club feels like a cousin of The Thursday Murder Club in that it is British and exceedingly entertaining. It features four women, each from a different generation, coming together to solve a series of murders in their town of Marlow. Thorogood combines the women's skills and speciality knowledge to catch the murderer. One is a dog walker who knows where everyone lives and is connected socially. Another is a young vicar's wife who is internet savvy and highly organized. A young female detective challenged to "figure it out" on a shrinking budget gives access to the forensic and background information. The ringleader is a 70-year-old eccentric who has a job setting crossword puzzles and has a masterful mind for mystery and odd clues. It is the first book of the series, and I'm looking forward to reading more. It is pleasantly diverting.
