A review by goglu1
Battle Ground by Jim Butcher
2.0
I am in choc. I don't know how to rate it. I devoured it and hated it at the same time. If you are to turn around the series as much, why not just finish it? At the same time, we would say that Butcher created a new series with a main character looking a lot like Dresden.
Basically it is raging battles (which I hate and always pass fast) and a lot of endings.
Killing Murphy that way feels like an afterthought. No grand exit, no saving Harry's life one last time. Just drive a bike and try to help. Being killed by a stupid coward. Not a heroes death. Just a way to take the series in another direction. Like a lot of the action in this book.
Scratch the White Council as difficult friends, remove the grandfather, remove Ramirez put them in the 'against ' gang. Marcone begins to look nice, pitch him to the dark side. Remove Thomas quite easily too. Let's go in another direction the next time.
The new and not so new foe, Justine/Nemesis. Feels small after the last ones. We'll see.
