Blood Rites: What's Your Inheritance?

Dresden Files just gets better with every book.
How do you make the incredible sound credible??? Jim Butcher is an incredible writer whose imagination bares all the makings of a fascinating entertaining book. James Marsters is a great vocal actor who breathes life into each character. The combination of both is the best I have ever come across.

possibly the best one yet

This one hit me in the feels. I'm a middle child of 3 boys. raised by a single mom. my brother's and I are very tight. so the family aspect in Harry's life has me excited for his development and future. loving the low fantasy, semi-realistic aspect of this series.

Mouse arrives

This is one of my favorite books in the Dresden files because Harry gets a dog! I love the humor between the brothers. And the Narrator is the best by far for this series! James Marsters you rock! Jim Butcher you're the best!
