The one with all the Harry Dresden short stories

April 25, 2014 by Malin 1 Comment

This is a collection of short stories featuring Harry Dresden, and Jim Butcher introduces each one, explaining which collection it was first included in, or what purpose it was written for. I wouldn’t advise anyone who hasn’t read up to, and finished, at least book 12, Changes, as the last novella in the book takes place immediately after the events in that book, and it contains several spoilers. This month’s monthly motif is Short and Sweet, to read short story collection or anthologies. Which fit pretty much perfectly for me […]

A lot of things can change in six months

April 12, 2014 by Malin 3 Comments

3.5 stars Again, this is a book that I don’t actually want to post about here, because if you haven’t read the previous 12 books in the series, it’s probably best if you know as little as possible about what this book is about. If you have read the previous 12, and this book, and want my take on it, feel free to check my thought over on my blog. I promise I’ll start posting actual reviews here real soon.

A member of the senior council of wizards is murdered. Harry has to clear the name of his nemesis.

This is the eleventh book in the Dresden Files. You don’t want to start with this one, there’s far too much in the book building on stuff already established. I’d recommend anyone new to the books to start with book 4. The first three were a complete slog to get through for me. The audio book versions, read by James Marsters, are all highly recommended.  Harry Dresden is extremely surprised when Morgan, the wizard whose probably shown the most animosity towards Harry in the past, shows […]

The one where Harry tries to catch a serial killer and fights a lot of ghouls

January 24, 2014 by Malin Leave a Comment

Chicago wizard and now a Warden of the White Council, Harry Dresden, gets called in by his friend Sgt. Karrin Murphy (she got demoted after helping Harry out in the last book) to look into a series of mysterious deaths. A lot of women have been found dead around Chicago, in what appears at first glance to be suicides, but Murphy and her team at Special Investigations can tell something is off, and Harry finds magically hidden writing that suggests the women have been killed […]
