About this listen

Not every danger comes in the form of a mega-threat like a Titan. Some predators are a lot cozier...more personal.

When one such creature threatens an independent tutor, Harry Dresden must shake off the blood and dirt of his most recent battles and rise to the occasion, even when it turns out that the new predator is far more dangerous and connected than first appearances would suggest.

At first I was supper disappointed about the change in voice actor, it just didn't feel like it was Harry. But after an hour I was adjusted and loved the story. Jim did a great job with the voice acting.

So keen for the next book

A great addition to the Dresden-verse
Sad to experience Dresden pain in the aftermath of Battle Ground, but was happy to see Harry go back to his detective roots.
I seriously laughed out very very loud, and that was before the bloopers section.
A get read Mr Butcher, a joy to listen to 💜

Did I want a full novel instead of this bite sized snippet?
Sure.

Was the experience any less enjoyable for this fact?
Not at all.

worth it just for the blooper reel

Given his power and notoriety, you’d think that Harry Dresden, resident wizard of Chicago and Knight of the Winter Court, would be able to intimidate a newly released ex-con pimp who is suing a woman who has set up a tutoring charity for underprivileged children. But this guy is strangely unconcerned by Harry’s threats (and bluffs). Could it be the incredibly high-powered supernatural lawyer he’s hired who wins over 95% of his cases? Harry will have to get super-creative to stop this injustice from happening!

I love the humour in this series as well as the displays of magical power. Harry continues to champion justice for the weak and do the right thing simply because it’s the right thing to do. His powers have increased over the series but he still finds himself out of his depth, which is always fun. 🎧 This novella (about 3.3 hrs) is narrated by the author (for a change) and he does a great job!

Harry fights the law, but does the law win?
