Storm Front

My friend Taylor loves the Dresden series. Gushes about it even. So, after seeing the box display for Butcher's books at Barnes and Noble, I decided to take the plunge; and found it enjoyable. It's not the best writing in the world but it works. Butcher's Harry Dresden is a cross between a urban warlock and a old fashioned gumshoe and the writing shares the same feeling. It's got all the elements I like in a good plot. Humor, supernatural occurrences and a main character who's got flaws that make him more real. The story reads at a quick pace and while I'd have liked scenes to run a bit smoother, overall this was a fun read. Good thing I have book two on the shelf waiting.
