Good as always, a quick afternoon read

A good intro to Dresden's world. Been a while but it all came back. Such good writing, the characters are strong and the world is wonderful!

Hearing Jim Butcher narrate this series is very different from what I am used to but it was very well done.
Was great seeing Harry again and seeing him in situations where his normal responses just arent the right way to go.

So happy to be reading Dresden files again. This story picks up just weeks after the great battle in Battleground and it's wonderful to see Harry taking on clients and going back to his PI roots. We get introduced to another great character in Max, I feel like we'll see him again. Love these books!

Daniel Webster can win an argument with the devil, but can Harry Dresden?! This short story was a welcome return to the early Dresden books after the weight of the last few (ish).

Nice to get another installment. Fun to have Butcher perform the audiobook himself.

Short and sweet little story. Not much to write home about, I’ll probably forget it in a few months, but it was nice to visit Dresden again, it has been a while.

A Wonderful Little Palette Cleanser

After the events of Changes onward, PI work and very human stakes have been short in coming. This was just what the doctor ordered for me and for Dresden.

A low stakes breath of fresh air after the insanity of Battle Ground, that felt much like the Dresden Files of old. I wish there had perhaps been a little bit more action and/or emotional beats, but this just feels like warming us up for what’s to come.

And there it is. I'm caught up. The Law isn't an exceptional story, but it's a nice little adventure to wind down with after Battle Ground. As someone who Side Jobs after Changes, I actually like lower key stories following the major series pivots. Looking forward to Twelve Months whenever that drops. Might give The Codex Alera a shot to tide me over.

Harry Dresden continually extending his mantle of protection to the vulnerable and powerless is what makes him one of my favorite fictional heroes. It gives me hope to know that others enjoy the Dresden File stories for similar reasons.
