Publisher's summary

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.

The sum is greater than the individual parts

This series started out good but has developed into something great. Each book builds a more complex and more engrossing world. James Marsters is an absolute master of narration. I am eager to continue the series and I only hope that Jim Butcher keeps up the pace.

Very Dresden

All in all a pretty good story. I missed some of the comedic lines and more conversations with Bob. It re-explained some of the relationships between Dresden and previous women in his lives which I liked.
