Publisher's summary

Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden is Chicago's only openly practicing wizard. He is also dead broke. His vast knowledge and magical skills are unfortunately matched by his talent for making powerful enemies and alienating friends. With little more than his integrity left, he accepts an offer of work from Lt. Karin Murphy of Chicago's Special Investigations Unit. He wants to redeem himself in Murphy's eyes and make enough money to quiet his rumbling stomach.

Soon he finds himself pinned between trigger-happy FBI agents, shape-shifiting motorcycle gang members, a threatened mobster boss, and an heir to an ancient curse along with his primal fiance. Throw in environmental activists and a pair of young werewolves in love and you have something of Fool Moon.

Dresden learns about Werewolves.

Jim Butcher is one of my favorite authors. I love how he brings out the heart of a character and his worldbuilding is sublime. If you even remotely like the genre, you can't go wrong with a Dresden book. James Marsters narrating just makes it a must hear.

Grow Some Hair

The fact that Jim Butcher can combine every concievable myth about werewolves and create a single story including them all is writing at it's finest. And James Marsters is the best way to listen to Harry Dresden.

Great Narrator for Dresden

I can't say enough good things about how well this narrator portrayed Dresden as I 'hear' his voice when I read the books. He also did a fine job with the other characters. Great book also, but, even though a fan of the books, there are a few things that annoyed me about this early book:
(1) there are some obvious redundancies in Jim Butcher's descriptions that you'll see/hear in other books (I was tempted to review to see if these were word-for-word, then decided I really didn't want to know...),
(2) Butcher spends WAY too much time describing Dresden's intimate moments (realized and fantasized) - so much so that it begins to read like a romance novel at times.

Despite these minor reservations, I still considered it a top-notch book, and a great read/listen for the Dresden fan.

Book 2 continues to impress

What was one of the most memorable moments of Fool Moon?

If I went on and told you the most memorable moment I would be spoiling the plot.
