Not My Favorite....

Liked this one... I wish that it didn't have dual storylines though. I honestly think the whole Mavra thing could have waited until another story or been left out. Other than that, not much else to say really....

I so wanted to punch Murphy's sister in the face! I hate when sisters go after the same man. Ewww.

Deeper into the world

The storyline continues to unfold becoming more interesting by the book. Had a very difficult time getting through the first two but find myself flying through them at an increasingly accelerated pace.

Excellent continuation of the Dresden series!

I read it before, but having Mr. Marsden narrate gave it even more life! Jim butcher, of course, is the one to praise for the story, and he tells such a rich tale, I would like to come to Chicago to shake Harry Dresden's hand in person.
