Meet Harry Dresden, Chicago's first (and only) Wizard P.I. Turns
out the 'everyday' world is full of strange and magical things -
and most of them don't play well with humans. That's where Harry
comes in. Business has been slow lately for Harry Dresden. Okay,
business has been dead. Not undead - just dead. You would think
Chicago would have a little more action for the only professional
wizard in the phone book. But lately, Harry hasn't been able to
dredge up any kind of work - magical or mundane. But just when it
looks like he can't afford his next meal, a murder comes along that
requires his particular brand of supernatural expertise. A brutally
mutilated corpse. Strange-looking paw prints. A full moon. Take
three guesses. And the first two don't count . . . Magic - it can
get a guy killed. 'The Dresden Files is my favourite series ever'
Patrick Rothfuss, author of The Name of the Wind 'Butcher's
storytelling is satisfying on a level that's bone-deep' io9 'One of
the most reliable post-Buffy supernatural thriller series on offer'

Excellent series

Part of a series of 16 books, and still more to come! Excellent writing, a flawed, powerful main character whose choices become darker and more difficult as the stakes go up. Highly recommended.
