Product ReviewsJim Butcher Summer Knight (Paperback) Dresden Files

Great story about magic and mythical creatures set in modern times.

I am new to the books. Loved the short TV production of The Dresden Files. I just recently decided to look up the books and love the authors style. They are easy to read, not sure I would say "compelling" but certainly fast paced and exciting. I enjoy the author's Harry and Harry's sense of humor. It's a delightful read for those that like fantasy. As I said before its an easy read. Not quite as intense and serious as other books I've read, but maybe that is why I'm finding them so delightful. I'm looking forward to reading the whole series. Thank you Jim Butcher for a great way to pass time during the pandemic !Read full review...

The Nevernever is never dull!

I liked the story the least of the series so far. I still enjoyed it though! It's just very complicated and there are a lot of characters to follow and remember. There is a battle among the fairies in Nevernever and Harry Dresden, the detective and only wizard in Chicago, gets caught literally in the middle. Several characters from the earlier books show back up here and we learn a little more about Dresden and his wizard training as he was growing up an orphan. We learn more about his mother who seems to be the one with the powers that were passed to Dresden. The book is good afterall but a little harder to read than the earlier books. The author has a lot to say and it gets a little scrambled, but he works it all out in the end as does Dresden!Read full review...

Summer Knight

Harry Dresden, Wizard and investigator of things paranormal is at it again!
I love this series of books. The series gets to me as I am a professional Magician and can relate to the Dresden character. I am a fan of the hard boiled private investigator type and Dresden is the Wizard version of Robert Parker's Spenser. He is a wise-cracking individual with a soft spot for chivalry and the fair sex.

He gets himself into situations that keep him in constant danger and luckily has friends that will come to his aid. Where Spenser has Hawk, Dresden has Bob.
Hawk is Spenser's helping muscle where Dresden's Bob helps with knowledge as he is not physical...he is a spirit in a skull.

I warn you...read one book and you will find yourself hooked for all of the books.Read full review...

Summer Knight

Harry, Harry, Harry when are you going to learn to stay out of the thick of things? (Never I hope)
As with all the other Dresden books this one is a fast paced, funny look at an all too human wizard who is somewhat old fashioned in his views.
Mr Butcher has created the perfect hero for "everyman". He's believable in his failings, and quite heroic in the trials and tribulations facing a professional wizard from Chicago.
Yhis is a must read if you enjoy a great galloping ride from hither to yon with a stop in between to laugh.Read full review...
