Due to circumstances, I was able to finish an entire novel today. While that is cause for joy, it was mostly due to being a little ill.
That's fine by me. It's been a while since I've had an entire day to myself to read.
Title: Dead Beat
Author: Jim Butcher
Series: The Dresden Files
SPOILERS AHEAD - though since it was published in 2005 I'm certain most of you have read this. (I'm a little behind the times here, gimme a break.)
In this tale, we find our friendly neighbourhood wizard dealing with multiple things:
- his half-brother vampire who can't seem to hold a job
- regaining control over a severely burned hand
- a half-alive vampire threatening Murph
- students of Kemmler
- a silver coin with a demon
- Necromancers
- Halloween
With all this ahead of him, and only a few days to get the bad guys.
With everything coming down the line he manages to find the help of a mortician, his half-brother vampire, his huge shaggy dog, the Wardens (who knew, right?), and a plethora of others.
But something goods gotta come out of it, right?
It's just an average day for the resident private investigator Wizard.
I personally love this series. What are yours?
