And here it is...it took eight volumes of this series, almost the halfway point, but this one easily earned the five star rating.
Butcher is now not just paying lip service to previous outings while telling an engaging story, he's now paying off previous events, showing the benefits and consequences of previous action, while also firmly setting the path for future novels and storylines.
His character work here, especially with Charity, is exceptional. Butcher's gone from wielding a battle ax to a surgeon's scalpel with his writing.
I absolutely loved this book. I finally get why fans love this series so much.
