Summer Knight

The Dresden Files, Book 4

By: Jim Butcher

Narrated by: James Marsters

Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden is a very powerful wizard and a dedicated private eye. He is also a wise cracking trouble magnet. Fueled by a tempest of guilt, sleep deprivation, malnutrition, bad temper and frankly awful personal grooming. Harry is hurtling toward oblivion. According to Harry that is nobody's business but his own.

The Winter Queen of Faerie manipulates him into accepting a case to solve a murder and stop a war between the courts of Summer and Winter that could have literally earth shattering consequences. His own soul is up for grabs. Dresden must dig deep to discover that at time a willingness to accept a little help from your friends, be they a cub pack of werewolves, old loves in sheep's clothing, or a battalion of pizza loving dewdrop fairies, is a very good thing.

Yes! Better.

After reading book 3, I was nervous the series was turning into something I would dump. This one redeems it for me. Harry's humor returns, the action is great, history is explained, and the narration continues to be excellent. The one complaint is, and it probably should be a big one, I didn't get it. The motive of the "bad person" in the end - huh? Yet, it seems like even the characters in the book didn't get it, so, there you have it great book with a WTH plot.

Sexy, funny, harrowing, entertaining, draws U in!

What does James Marsters bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

James Marsters is an uber-talented actor and he brings every bit of it to his narration. His accents are true and you can FEEL the emotion in his voice, from tears to laughter to fear! He makes a good story EXCELLENT!

Marsters.

A wonderful reader. I can tell a mesmerizing actor
But as in a spell the words don’t work if they are not pronounced just right. Look up “sigil” and “ocher” to start. Demesne is a root of domain. French ,s as are so many of the words related to the high faery.

Still love the books and Marsters’ masterful characterization - changing from creature to human as smoothly as the Faery Knight.

Another great performance

Another fantastic installment of the Dresden Files audio books. Performance was dynamic and consistent; if you've made it to this book, you won't be disappointed

Wonderful series!

Dresden is a character that everyone can get behind. The writer does an excellent job pulling you into the story and making new root for the main character. Well worth reading. I recommend that you start at the first book storm front.

All hail the pizza lord,

join Harry Dresden as he finds himself wrapped up in the affairs of the queens of fairy in a desperate attempt to save the damsel, protect the changelings and possibly save his own neck. this book marks the point where writing by Jim and reading by James get kicked into high gear.

Fabulous

I cannot wait to listen to his next!!! Love his adventures and his humor!!! I now am a huge fan!!!👍😎

another home run!

Great addition to Dresden Files and great narration! Plus we get to see the Alphas in action.

Awesome!!

I gave a bad review of the audio of books 1-3 because the narrator uses a library voice and whispers too much. In this book he uses a lot more volume and it is much easier to follow along and get into the story. This is one of my favorite book series so I am thrilled the audio is better now!!

James would make a great Harry

James has finally taken on the mantle of Harry.....he would make a great Harry if the series were ever to be remade.....love how he now reads them with heart even adding different voices for other characters.
