Publisher's summary

In Chicago, someone has been killing practitioners of magic, those incapable of becoming full-fledged wizards. Shockingly, all the evidence points to Harry Dresden's half brother, Thomas, as the murderer. Determined to clear his sibling's name, Harry uncovers a conspiracy within the White Council of Wizards that threatens not only him, but his nearest and dearest, too.

Critic reviews

“What’s not to like about this series?...It takes the best elements of urban fantasy, mixes it with some good old-fashioned noir mystery, tosses in a dash of romance and a lot of high-octane action, shakes, stirs, and serves.” (SF Site)

“A tricky plot complete with against-the-clock pacing, firefights, explosions, and plenty of magic. Longtime series fans as well as newcomers drawn by the SciFi Channel’s TV series based on the novels should find this supernatural mystery a real winner.” (Library Journal)

“What would you get if you crossed Spenser with Merlin? Probably you would come up with someone very like Harry Dresden, wizard, tough guy and star of [the Dresden Files].” (The Washington Times)

Wizard PI what more do you need.

What about James Marsters’s performance did you like?

James plays dresden like he was born for it.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This was dresden back at his roots, solving crime and being a private eye something he hasn't been in a while with everything going on.

One of the best yet!

I have been hooked on these since book one, and this is the best yet! Several ongoing questions are answered without putting too tight a bow on the whole thing. Between this and the last book Harry's life seems to start moving again.

Fantastically written

These books just keep getting better. The plot, the character development, the world building... incredible. We get a lot more depth to it all as events and characters from different books begin to connect.

James Masters voice is audible chocolate

Gum shoe detective meets magical fantasy. I no longer think of mr. Marsters as Spike from Buffy. He is burned into my mind and ears as Harry Dresden in the yellow pages under Wizard.
