A bold introduction to both the Dresden Files series and Urban Fantasy as a whole. A private eye with access to magic, Dresden uses cunning, strength, and an ever present dry wit to combat the dark forces of Chicago, both mortal and supernatural. Though not the strongest entry in the series, it starts readers on a journey that will captivate them for years to come. Would've been 3.5 stars because some of the characters can come off a little one dimensional, but raised it to a 4 since they are new and quickly grow into fan favorites over the rest of the series.
