About this listen

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.

But he's forgotten his own golden rule: magic - it can get a guy killed.

As ways, Marsden was great as a narrator. As a story though, this was the first in the Dresden series to feel like half of a book. The end felt very abrupt, and caught me by surprise.

I waited as long as everyone else for this book and was not disappointed. It scratched an itch that was driving me insane. Jim is a master of his craft and James Marsters is pure perfection as always.

Back to his best

If you have got this far in the series you are obviously a fan. I would say this is typical Dresden.

Dresden as you love him.

This is the fist two parter, it it really feels like it was one book that got too long, was split into two, and the first half padded out to a whole book. Very little of consequence happens until the end and doesn't feel important

Clearly one book stretched in to two

Whilst it does not dive into lore quite as much as other books It still feels like an epic build up which excites me for the next book! Loved it!

Amazing setup

Kind of a “Previously on the Dresden Files” to reacquaint us with characters and situations we may have last encountered six years ago.

Also kind of a prologue for “Battle grounds”

And I’m ok with both of those things. The self contained plot for this one was pretty straightforward, but larger events continue to unfold.

Looking forward to diving right in to “Battleground”.

Don’t make as wait too long for the next books, Jim!

Great job by James Marsters once again. He has made this series narration his own. Not a fan of Mab’s new voice though. It sounds like she is talking through Grimalkin again.

Dive in people, it’s been worth the wait.

Worth the wait
