Small Favor

I wasn't as invested in this book as the previous ones. It sure is fun and full of action, but I guess I wasn???t in the mood for so much action all at once. I can see that this book will bring serious repercussions for the plot in the future. Harry Dresden is again pushed to his limits, with overpowering supernatural entities. I was worried about a particular character's future health, something I'll have to discover in the next book.

After the last book I was feeling like maybe I'd hit a wall with Dresden. I was getting annoyed with some of his formulaic aspects like how every woman seems to be incandescently radiant and beyond attractive, how he's “just old fashioned” about women in distress (even though he's self aware about it which is a great first step, i'd like to seem more development in that area after 10 books. I want to see some growth), and how he always has a headache and is so tired he can't speak. It happens EVERY single book. All this combined with boring and somewhat sloppy plot I was really disappointed with his last book. I was feeling some Dresden fatigue. I picked up this one right away though and was rewarded with one of my favourite in the series thus far. There was so much humour! I was on the edge of my seat so many times. I outright cried a few times. I'm back on the Dresden train. ;)

As usual Jim Butcher does disappoint when it comes to the Dresden files.

Fast paced and action packed supernatural forces vs the world and wizard for hire Harry Dresden .

I love Jim Butchers sense of humor with in his writing style and how he uses religious theology within jus story.

The knights of the cross with the nails of the crucifix along with 30 pieces of possessed silver just make for a more interesting read.

Anything Dresden Files is highly reccomended
