The Dresden Files

OK, now that just looks cool.  I love a great cover series and these are very nice indeed even if they are a bit repetitive.  Harry Dresden looks a bit more of a bad-ass on these covers than he did in the TV series but I do kind of miss the hockey stick.

Anyway, I just wanted to point out the we’ve got the entire Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher up now so all you guys that keep telling me I’ve got to read these books can go and tag ’em.  Storm Front is next on my list.

Also, for you Butcher fans, we’ve just added a ton of video clips to his author page.  If you’ve never heard him speak you should check these out.  He’s a very entertaining speaker and he answers a lot of questions about Dresden and his other works.

The TV show was quite good. The books are even better. At least the two I have read so far were great.

Those covers look so sexy, I may have to start reading these. I did watch the show, and I can now see that the Rockford Files feel must have been one of the defining shifts when the material was adapted. Still, I hope to see some of that "down on my luck, but still a badass" charm that made the show so fun.

Love this series!!! I was really upset when SciFi (can bring myself to use the new name) canceled what was a very good adaptation. If only the books would come faster and the series last a lot longer.

The channel formerly know as SciFi always manages to disappoint. Butcher’s been writing 1 Dresden book a year since 2000. That’s not fast enough for ya?

Hell now thats not fast enough. He needs to drop that other mediocre other series of his and concentrate on Dresden…putting out 2 or 3 books a year ;).Actually i know writing isnt THAT easy but but no once a year isnt enough. I guess thats a measure of how good the books are. Or at least how much i like them. Kinda like Peter Hamiltons books. I’ve been waiting for what seems like years for the final book in the Void series. Or Glen Cook’s Black Company series. And now i’ve heard rumors that there are more in that series planned….well…life is just unbearable waiting. 🙂
