    Default The Dresden Files book series by Jim Butcher

    Anyone else read these books?

    I've read the entire series with exception of the short stories.

    What's your favorite book/moment/quote?

    Mine is Harry reanimating a T-Rex to fight the undead.

    Hey! I'm reading them now. I don't even remember how I heard about him, but I've read several of them at this point. I just finished the one with the Summer Knight.

    I have really enjoyed them. I especially liked Michael. The humor in them is fantastic as well as the idea of a real wizard hanging out his shingle. I suppose I should look up how many more I have to go, as ending them would make me quite sad.


    Don't tell me if he ever cures his girlfriend.



    BTW, Hi everyone. I'm not really back, just visiting via a friends wifi.

    I really enjoy the Dresden books. There's a goodness about Harry that makes him so easy to root for.

    When I try to think of a favorite moment, I'm not really stumbling across anything specific. Probably the ending of White Night and the resolution of the Lasciel story. I loved that. (I hope I'm naming the right book.)

    I love the Johnny Marcone character and Bob.

    For some strange reason, Murphy looks, in my imagination, exactly like Clea DuVall, so any time Butcher describes her differently it gives me a shock.

    I am only on Summer Knight myself, but so far I love them. Great and different series. I like how Harry has a genuine self esteem issue. He constantly downplays how fricken kick ass he is.

    Read 'em all, and got the DVDs to boot. They had to make some changes in the TV series, but I didn't have any real problems with them. In fact, I kinda preferred the TV Bob to the book Bob.
