About this listen

 In Chicago, someone has been killing practitioners of magic, those incapable of becoming full-fledged wizards. Shockingly, all the evidence points to Harry Dresden's half brother, Thomas, as the murderer. Determined to clear his sibling's name, Harry uncovers a conspiracy within the White Council of Wizards that threatens not only him, but his nearest and dearest, too.©2008 Roc (P)2009 Penguin Detective Epic Epic Fantasy Fantasy Fiction Mystery Private Investigators Magic Magic Users Wizardry Paranormal

Critic Reviews

“What’s not to like about this series?...It takes the best elements of urban fantasy, mixes it with some good old-fashioned noir mystery, tosses in a dash of romance and a lot of high-octane action, shakes, stirs, and serves.” (SF Site)

“A tricky plot complete with against-the-clock pacing, firefights, explosions, and plenty of magic. Longtime series fans as well as newcomers drawn by the SciFi Channel’s TV series based on the novels should find this supernatural mystery a real winner.” (Library Journal)

“What would you get if you crossed Spenser with Merlin? Probably you would come up with someone very like Harry Dresden, wizard, tough guy and star of [the Dresden Files].” (The Washington Times)

Niche pronounced “nitch”; penchant pronounced “penn-chant” and others ... this detracts from the quality of good writing and narration. After a while, annoyance overcomes enjoyment.

Why can’t James Marsters learn to pronounce words?

Found this one to be duller than others. Ending was a bit soft but it had it's moments, solid addition to the series.

Decent but not as good as other DF books.
