Publisher's summary

The White Council of Wizards has drafted Harry Dresden as a Warden and assigned him to look into rumors of black magic in Chicago. Malevolent entities that feed on fear are loose in the Windy City, but it's all in a day's work for a wizard, his faithful dog, and a talking skull named Bob.

Critic reviews

"One of the most enjoyable marriages of the fantasy and mystery genres on the shelves.” (Cinescape)

“Butcher...spins an excellent noirish detective yarn in a well-crafted, supernaturally-charged setting. The supporting cast is again fantastic, and Harry’s wit continues to fly in the face of a peril-fraught plot." (Booklist)

one of my favorites of the series.

This is my second go-round in the Dresden Files series (minus the latest book) and I have to say that this one and the last (Deadbeat) are two of my favorites. The books turn the corner starting with 3 and 4 then really change gears with these two inmho. Love this series.. wish someone would do it justice and it had a proper translation like GOT for cinema! The characters all have such depth! and the nevernever would have such potential on the big screen.

Awesome as always

Proven Guilty is an amazing addition full of action and mystery. Dresden as our friendly neighborhood smart mouth is hilarious and interesting as always and James Marsters brings him to life. The more I read this series the more I've noticed the similarities in this series and the old tales. It's subtle, but there all the same. Great audio. I highly recommend it.

My Fav So Far!

I am on my second listening of the whole series and I am enjoying it even MORE than the first time!! This is my favorite among my favorite series...so far! It includes not only the issue that needs to be dealt with but also the emotional ties between characters has really deepened. I cried in sadness and happiness and laughed out loud! A great book I highly recommend!

James Marsters

Love him as Spike and love him as Harry!!! I buy the audiobook just to listen to him even though I enjoy reading the book ahead of when he narrates it.
