I just noticed my re-listen dates on this audiobook are both at the end of August. Apparently I get in the mood for this at the end of Summer (I think that's when I originally read the paperback too.) Storywise, the same as the paperback obviously, nothing to add there. It's far from perfect, but ...

I’ve reviewed this book before but I was writing for a different blog at the time. Also, it has stood the test of time quite well and I feel it deserves another review. Harry Dresden, the only openly practicing wizard in the country, is about to have a very rough weekend. Set in the city of Chicago,...

Not really my cup of tea. I had heard so many good things about this series and had high hopes for it but I really just found it dull and predictable. I may try the next book just to see if it gets any better, but probably not.

Another first of a series, which I will definitely be reading more of in the near future. I'm thinking a grown-up Harry Potter here, with all his inherent talents and dealing with the messed-up real world. Absolutely refreshing and just dang fun to read.

First person, ugh. (Let it not be said that I only discriminate against female first person POV!) At least the MC of Harry Dresden is rather likable. Similes are a bit strange, but... not so bad. Pretty quick read ultimately. Serious regret though that I wasted all this time waiting for a digital ...

Storm Front is a good first book in a series. It gives just enough information about its characters to keep you engaged, and these characters are both unique and well-drawn. My favorite of the bunch (so far, anyway) is the talking skull, Bob. Now I know where Kadrey got the idea for Kasabian in his ...

I really wasn't sure what to expect when I started listening to Storm Front. I'd heard of the TV show The Dresden Files but never watched an episode or even knew what it was about. I didn't know until recently that the show was based on a series of books. It wasn't until I saw the newest book by ...

Wow! Just… wow! I was pleasantly surprised and extremely impressed with the audiobook of Storm Front, the first story from the Dresden Files series by James Butcher. I really didn’t know much about the series, never watched the show, and had no idea what to expect, other than I’d heard the books are...

First half: 2 starsSecond half: 4 stars Overall rating: 3 (and a quarter) stars, simply because of how exciting that second half was. So it's taken me almost a month to read this. Which is ridiculous really, but this isn't my usual genre of book. I like my books to have romance/sex in them and t...

Being a wizard can be difficult, but add detective on top of it, you have a recipe for disaster and hilarity! Follow Harry Dresden on his journey to find the mysterious Victor Sells, try and keep a police LT happy with his consulting and not get torn apart by demons.I loved this read! I had so much ...
