I love Jim Butchers Dresden Files, and the latest installment is coming out in April. That means that as we count down the month, Mr. Butcher will release a chapter a week leading up to the next book. And this book, aptly called Changes, promises to be one hell of a ride. And all I have to say is thank god for it. I have probably read all of the Dresden Files books four or five times easily, and cant wait for the next one to come out. I truly believe that Mr. Butcher is the author of our generation.
What i love about the dresden files is the fact that there is an overarching storyline, without the books specificly dealing with that storyline in any way. Each book is a mystery, as Harry is a private eye, but each mystery shows a little more of the overall story than the last one did. Slowly throughout the series, which will number at twelve when the newest one comes out and is supposed to go to twenty, you get to see a little more of who the actual bad guys are and kind of what they are trying to do. And i love it.
The newest book deals with a character we haven't seen since the fifth book, Susan, and the child she apparently had with Harry. Dont worry, im not spoiling anything, cause it literally says in the synaps of the book that Harry has a child. And if you don't believe me, the first line of the first chapter that was released today is Susan telling Harry she had his kid and someone took her.
Anyway, if you are a fan of good fantasy, and haven't read any of Jim Butcher's work, than you have until April 6 to get up to date. Dont be shocked if the first two books arent all i said the series would be, he was still a new author when he wrote them. When you get to the third you will understand what i mean. Good luck and have fun :)
