Fool Moon by Jim Butcher
3.0
I've given up on being invested in the Dresden novels. And then I found this book at a free library at my local coffee shop you figured why not give it another read. This book is clearly better than the first one, let's be fair if I was almost exact same beats. A grisly murder, Dresden not being trusted, and almost dying. The circumstances may be different but the flow is thr dame
There is a line near the end of the book where a character calls Dresden A pompous arrogant pretentious chauvinistic hopelessly old-fashioned and stupidly pig headed. All that rings true. Dresden acts like a edgy horny 20 year old with too much mysterious power. And to be fair he was written by such a man early in his career. I heard recently that everyone should skip the first book and start with the 2nd. Or the 3rd or the 4th... I'll read thr next book and not think to hard about it. They are enjoyable brisk reads. I don't fault the author for this style. But I'm curious to see how he and Mt Dresden develop.
