Note: I feel that Death Masks, Book 5, is where reading this series out of order starts to do you an injustice. This book does work as a stand alone to some extent, but you will get major spoilers for the previous books in the series and it also pulls in characters we have met before. So I recommend...

Harry Dresden died, way back in 2010, four books ago, in "Changes - The Dresden Files #12". That was tough book. Probably the best book in the Dresden Files. Harry Dresden had no good choices left. He executed the woman he loved knowing that, through this act, he would destroy thousands of peopl...
