“Loved it!”

And it seems personally directed at Harry. Not just ghosts after him, but vampires and fairy godmothers and-- All sorts of horrible things happen to Harry and those he cares about, but he scrapes by in the end. Not exactly a happy ending, but Harry's still standing, and he caught the thing that was causing the ghost trouble, and his friends are alive and sorta well. My son read the entire series one after another, but I had to take a break after book 3, because Jim Butcher puts poor Harry through such hell. I did like the book”

The particular version I read had a TON of typos, but other than that, a really good read. Some interesting turns throughout the book, and I like the humor Mr. Butcher adds to his characters and that the hero never takes himself too seriously. I'm looking forward to the next one.”

In this, the third book in the Dresden Files, Harry is battling ghosts that are mysteriously not at rest as the border between the Nevernever and the regular world gets thinner and thinner. Who is behind all of this turmoil? How is Harry's lovelife going? who is this new friend Micheal, who is the "Fist of God"? Read this book and find out. Really fun read, recommended.”

Time to get it. Five white candles surrounded my summoning circle, the points of an invisible pentacle. White for protection. And because they're the cheapest color at Wal-Mart. Hey,being a wizard doesn't make money grow on trees.
I don't remember the spell, or the words I said. But I remember reaching for that pain. I remember reaching for it, and thinking that if we had to go, then so help me God, weakened or not, hopeless or not, I was going to take these murdering, bloodsucking sons of bitches with me.
The above two examples are why I will read everything in this series and hope that Jim Butcher never tires of writing Harry Dresden.
Five kickin' ghost ass in Chicago beans.... ”
“I really enjoyed this book. I loved the first, Storm Front, thought the 2nd, Fool Moon was not nearly as good, but felt he got his stride back with Grave Peril. I'm looking forward to the next in the series.”
