Reading progress update: I've read 100%.
Peace Talks - Jim Butcher

Well, not quite a cliff-hanger ending but not quite a free-standing novel either. More like Part 1 of a spectacular Season Finale of a long-running show.

 

I'm very glad that Part 2. 'Battle Ground' will be in my library on 29th September.

Peace Talks - Jim Butcher

here's only a quarter of the book left- ok that's still another four hours of audiobook - BUT it feels like I'm heading towards a cliff-hanger ending. I know the next book is out in a couple of months but I still hope I'm not left hanging

Peace Talks - Jim Butcher

I'm enjoying James Marsten's narration. He's making Harry (finally) sound quite grown up, partly because he's not rushing through Harry's internal reflections. He's giving them some weight.

Peace Talks - Jim Butcher

No one does supernatural fight scenes as well as Jim Butcher. He starts with an attack from a knee-weakening, apparently invulnerable monster and then escalates until that feels like the easy part.

 

He makes every step physical and immediate so that, by the end of it, you're exhausted.

Peace Talks - Jim Butcher

The Dresden Files are behaving like London Buses. I've waited six years since I read 'Skin Game' and now we have two books coming along almost together: 'Peace Talks' published today and 'Battle Ground' scheduled for the end of September.

 

I'm only at the set up of 'Peace Talks' but I'm already remembering why I loved these books. I'm glad I won't have to wait more than a few weeks for the next one.
