Took my time with this one and read other books between.
More of the same, great, bloody fight scenes, but too complicated, and although the book could be read as a standalone, there are a couple of loose ends, and more complications, some even from the first book. Somehow not really my kind of mc and also not my kind of book. Not sure wether or when I will read more of the series, currently I do not feel it. Would depend on price, would buy them cheap or an omnibus, but as it is, the books are too expensive for me.
Recommended for those who liked the first book in the series.

I enjoyed [b:Fool Moon|91477|Fool Moon (The Dresden Files, #2)|Jim Butcher|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1507307616s/91477.jpg|855288] more than I did [b:Storm Front|47212|Storm Front (The Dresden Files, #1)|Jim Butcher|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1419456275s/47212.jpg|1137060], which I definitely enjoyed. Harry was still stupidly overprotective of other people in a way which put them in more danger than they would have been otherwise, but at least there was less "omg, the wimmenz, they need protecting and coddling" bullshit. I also found the story more interesting. Where the first book bounced around in a way that I found confusing at times, the pace of the second was pretty good. The audio is also great. I recommend listening to these. I'm looking forward to the next one!
Not quite as exhilarating at Storm Front, mostly due to it feeling bogged down from too many plotlines, but damn if it still wasn't fun to listen to. James Marsters's narration is phenomenal and has me addicted as hell to this series.

A solid entry but definitely still getting up to speed.
sometimes a book is so painfully written by a man you don’t even have to look at the cover to see the author’s name
Dresden is a chauvinistic pig and he excuses it by thinking himself a gentleman
