Summary

Meet Harry Dresden, Chicago's first (and only) Wizard PI. Turns out the "everyday" world is full of strange and magical things - and most of them don't play well with humans. That's where Harry comes in.

A bargain made with the Queen of Air and Darkness has forced Dresden into a new job: professional killer. His first task is to bring death to an immortal. As if that wasn't hard enough, Dresden learns of a danger to Demonreach, the living island hidden upon Lake Michigan. A danger that could destroy billions and land Dresden in the deepest trouble he has ever known.

Dresden has only 24 hours to gather the allies he has left and prevent a cataclysm - all while the power he bargained to get, but never meant to keep, lays siege to his very soul. Magic - it can get a guy killed.

A far from cold tale.

Good yarn with plenty of Action and suspense also some unexpected twists and turns in the plot. I am working my way through the series and have enjoyed every one so far. I particularly like the current narrator who has read all but one of the stories. Recommended as a very enjoyable read.

A great reading as always, and an amazing story. I have been hooked on the Dresden Files for a long time now and it has been such a delight following Harry through his journey

They dont lose pace!

Any additional comments?

I ran through these books and from 2-15 the pace does not deteriorate. I cannot recommend Jim Butcher as an author too much although I assume if your this far into the series you know exactly what I mean and wouldn't disagree! Eagerly awaiting the next instalment after Skin Game. If you are new to the series, go out right now and start with the first book and be ready for a roller-coaster of a story and background character dramatisation!

Entertaining listen

As usual another great book in the Dresden Files series. Any shortcomings in the the story are more than made up by the supurb narration by James Marsters.
