Cold Days

The Dresden Files, Book 14

De: Jim Butcher

Narrado por: James Marsters

Meet Harry Dresden, Chicago's first (and only) Wizard PI. Turns out the "everyday" world is full of strange and magical things - and most of them don't play well with humans. That's where Harry comes in.

A bargain made with the Queen of Air and Darkness has forced Dresden into a new job: professional killer. His first task is to bring death to an immortal. As if that wasn't hard enough, Dresden learns of a danger to Demonreach, the living island hidden upon Lake Michigan. A danger that could destroy billions and land Dresden in the deepest trouble he has ever known.

Dresden has only 24 hours to gather the allies he has left and prevent a cataclysm - all while the power he bargained to get, but never meant to keep, lays siege to his very soul. Magic - it can get a guy killed.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The most reliable post-Buffy supernatural series on offer." ( Time Out)

A great story.

I have really enjoyed the dresden series. Am sad that I am at the end...but stars and stones dresden will remsin with me. Thank you.

Rough ride

An enjoyable reread (in the hopes of the next book coming out one day.)
Harry is brought back and, as always in his life, things just keep getting worse and worse. Being the Winter Knight brings him a lot of power but the difficulty of the things he has to do are raised exponentially. The politics of Faery are impossible for a mortal to understand well and poor Harry mucks up a lot.

Great Listen

heartwrenching, thrilling, funny just like always. Hope the goodness keeps on coming. The narrator is still my favourite part of the series though

Harry's back!

Narration was excellent! Story was exciting and well paced. Always loved the interaction with members of the faerie court.

James Marsters is as always brilliant!

There are always plenty of tears and laughs in a Harry Dresden book.

Any additional comments?

James Marsters is a master of the performance of an audio book. His voice is excellent, his cast of charachter voices unbelievable and consistent. It's a pleasure to listen and hard to turn it off to get back to RL especially when combined with the writings of Jim Butcher.
