A review by feoh
Backup by Jim Butcher

4.0

This 12,000 word, 70 page novelette is an incredibly quick read, but if you're as hopelessly addicted to [author: Jim Butcher]'s Dresden Files series as I am, you'll love this book.

Unlike the other Dresden novels, Harry barely appears at all in this story, having a scant sentence or two of dialog through the entire thing. The action centers around Thomas, Harry's brother, and a vampire of the white court.

This is exactly the kind of non stop no holds barred fantasy romp filled with magic and things that go bump in the night that Dresden fans have thrilled to since book one. So go read this already! :)

Folks new to the Dresden universe should start at the beginning and read Butcher's excellent [book: Storm Front] first, otherwise the characters will lack the necessary depth needed to fully enjoy the experience.
