So far I have LOVED every book in this series. Each one is separate enough that it doesn’t totally rely on the book before it. Which is good since there’s usually large gaps of time between when I read them. I feel like I’ve already mentioned everything that I love about these books in my reviews for the first two books.

Probably my least favorite of the three so far. Still a fun, quick read, but the Dresden/white knight shtick was a little overdone here, I thought. I get that it's just a part of the character, but it does annoy me.
The actual plot was a little simplistic as well, compared to Fool Moon. I think it was a bit of a step back, but maybe was done to accomplish something specific -- namely, setting up a bigger arc for the next book(s). This was the first of the three with a lot of forward momentum at the ending, which is kind of nice.
I got bored with the ghosts and vampires here, probably because there really wasn't much introduced as new here. We've met the vampires, and the ghosts were about what we all would expect. It was nice to see a bit of the different Vampire Courts, but even that felt pretty expected.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of the White Council and the magical community as a whole, so hopefully the next few books show some of that off.
Anyways, overall this was still enjoyable, but a bit dull in comparison to the second book (my favorite of the three).

I think I enjoyed this one the most so far. They really do just keep getting better and better. I definitely recommend the audiobooks, though. You just can’t go wrong there.
