I expected some weird continuation after Changes, and that's what I got.I loved so many things about this book, it's my 2nd favorite in the series I guess. I can't wait to read the next one.The beginning is an insane page-turner, I couldn't wait to see what had happened to everyone since the cliffha...

Love the Dresden series, but this one seemed to be lacking it's usual wit.

2.75 Stars Yawn. Ghosts. Not my thing, but I love the Dresden novels and you can't just skip one. This read made Harry very distant and not as involved with the other characters like the previous reads and it really hurt the book. Dramatically hurt the book. The movie references and one-liners wer...

I love me some Dresden Files. I really do. And after getting over the overt sexism/chauvinism that I just don't appreciate (right about the time Butcher was toning it down), I really enjoyed Dresden. The whole series stays solid, it's not crap writing, it doesn't suffer from stagnation like so ...

3.5 starsEntertaining read, but not one of the stronger books in the series to date. This had the feel of, and is, I suppose, a transitional novel. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next for Harry and the gang.

If you haven’t read the earlier books, it’s not a good idea to read this review. Spoilers ahoy! Start with STORM FRONT (Dresden Files #1). If you’re a fan of urban fantasy, then trust me, you won’t be sorry for picking up this series.I read GHOST STORY while on my family trip in Florida. I’m resp...

ok, I'm only giving this three stars because most of the time when I was reading it, I had no idea what was going on. Totally my own fault as I started this series with the thirteenth book. Oops. As a result, I missed all the world-building, all the character development.It made my head hurt. I'd co...

So, I guess I'm late to the Harry Dresden party seeing as how several years ago there was a whole TV show adapted from the books that I didn't know about. Well, it's not like me to be on time... or up with the in crowd in any case.As a whole, I am in love with this series. I could easily give them m...

And we're back to Harry Dresden being a detective and trying to solve mysteries, except this Dresden is very different from the Dresden in the previous books, in more ways than one.Ghost Story doesn't read like any of the other titles in the series. It's hard to explain without spoiling anything, so...

If you haven't read The Dresden Files, then you need to set aside a chunk of your immediate life and do so. The 13th book in this series is the best yet. The characters continue to grow, maturing into the next book. Master Writer Jim Butcher has done an excellent job again of weaving a murder myster...
