    Too good of a plot line to spoil, trust me on this.

    that is one of the better ones... plus half the people that would be talked about you wouldn't know yet - you have to read the others to get to know them first.

    I don't know I thought they were okay but I have been much more impressed with his ongoing fantasy series.

    I tried the Codex one and was bored to death. Got half way through it and nothing had really happened yet so I gave up for the time being. But then, I love a good sarcastic hero and Dresden has that in spades.

    There is more but it would ruint he entire book for you.... how much are you looking to pay? BTW, when you get it check the pages... I had a miss colation and so did my friend. He was missing over 60 pages and I had them reprinted and missing

    Who was charity again? I can't place the name.

    I was looking to pay $12-16. $25 ish is just too much for me at the moment, jobless for a couple weeks.

    Haven't been able to buy it yet, jobless still.

    But how will Harry cart Bob around if he's a fire and not a skull. That will be strange.

    These books are unbelievable. I read all of them in three weeks and I cant believe I actually missed this series when they intially published. Too cool for school, without a doubt.

    I've read Dead Beat and Proven Guilty, but I can't find the rest anywhere around. Even the libary that you can check books out of two counties, doesn't have.

    are you looking to buy or borrow? if you want to buy and can't find them in a local store (which I find interesting if you can't) amazon.com has them all at a decent price
