  <description><![CDATA[<strong>Old doubts emerge, as do twisted promises and a friend as dangerous as any foe. Harry needs to get creative with the weaponry, as nothing ever goes smoothly for Chicago's only professional wizard…</strong><br/><br/>Harry Dresden's life finally seems to be calming down. The White Council's war with the vampiric Red Court has entered a period of détente, no one's tried to kill him in nearly a year, and the worst problem he's had lately is working out how to remove the stains his apprentice bungled into his carpeting. The future looks fairly promising. Unfortunately the past isn't nearly so bright.<br/><br/>An old bargain placed Harry in debt to Mab, monarch of the Winter Court of the Sidhe and the Queen of Air and Darkness. Harry still owes the Winter Queen of Faerie two favours, and it's now time to pay one of them off. It's a small favour that he really can't refuse, but it will trap Harry between a nightmarish foe and an equally deadly ally, stretching his skills and loyalties to their very limits.<br/><br/>It figures. Everything was going too well to last.]]></description>

    <![CDATA[<strong>The new novel in the New York Times bestselling Dresden Files series.</strong> <br/><br/> No one's tried to kill Harry Dresden for almost an entire year, and his life finally seems to be calming down. For once, the future looks fairly bright. But the past casts one hell of a long shadow. <br/><br/> An old bargain has placed Harry in debt to Mab, monarch of the Winter Court of the Sidhe, the Queen of Air and Darkness-and she's calling in her marker. It's a small favor he can't refuse...one that will trap Harry Dresden between a nightmarish foe and an equally deadly ally, and one that will strain his skills-and loyalties-to their very limits. <br/><br/> It figures. Everything was going too well to last...]]>

    <![CDATA[Harry Dresden’s life finally seems to be calming down.  The White Council’s war with the vampiric Red Court had reached a period of tentative peace, no one has tried to kill him for almost an entire year, and the worst problem he’s had lately is working out how to remove the stains on his carpeting.  For once, the future looks fairly bright.<br/><br/>But the past casts one hell of a long shadow.<br/><br/>An old bargain has placed Harry in debt to Mab, monarch of the Winter Court of the Sidhe, the Queen of Air and Darkness – and she’s calling in her marker. Dresden still owes the Winter Queen two favors, and it’s time to pay one of them off.  Just one small favor he can’t refuse – one that will trap Harry Dresden between a nightmarish foe and equally deadly ally and strain his skills and loyalties to their very limits.<br/><br/>It figures.  Everything was going too well to last….<br/><br/><br/>Read by: James Marsters<br/>]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>The new novel in the New York Times bestselling Dresden Files series.</strong> <br/><br/> No one's tried to kill Harry Dresden for almost an entire year, and his life finally seems to be calming down. For once, the future looks fairly bright. But the past casts one hell of a long shadow. <br/><br/> An old bargain has placed Harry in debt to Mab, monarch of the Winter Court of the Sidhe, the Queen of Air and Darkness-and she's calling in her marker. It's a small favor he can't refuse...one that will trap Harry Dresden between a nightmarish foe and an equally deadly ally, and one that will strain his skills-and loyalties-to their very limits. <br/><br/> It figures. Everything was going too well to last...]]>

    <![CDATA[Harry Dresden’s life finally seems to be calming down.  The White Council’s war with the vampiric Red Court had reached a period of tentative peace, no one has tried to kill him for almost an entire year, and the worst problem he’s had lately is working out how to remove the stains on his carpeting.  For once, the future looks fairly bright.<br/><br/>But the past casts one hell of a long shadow.<br/><br/>An old bargain has placed Harry in debt to Mab, monarch of the Winter Court of the Sidhe, the Queen of Air and Darkness – and she’s calling in her marker. Dresden still owes the Winter Queen two favors, and it’s time to pay one of them off.  Just one small favor he can’t refuse – one that will trap Harry Dresden between a nightmarish foe and equally deadly ally and strain his skills and loyalties to their very limits.<br/><br/>It figures.  Everything was going too well to last….<br/><br/><br/>Read by: James Marsters<br/>]]>

    <![CDATA[Wizard Harry Dresden's life finally seems to be calming down. The White Council's war with the vampiric Red Court is easing up, no one's tried to kill him lately, and his eager apprentice is starting to learn real magic. For once, the future looks fairly bright.<br/><br/>But the past casts one hell of a long shadow.<br/><br/>Mab, monarch of the Winter Court of the Sidhe, calls in an old favor from Harry. Just one small favor he can't refuse - one that will trap Harry Dresden between a nightmarish foe and an equally deadly ally and strain his skills and loyalties to their very limits.<br/><br/>And everything was going <em>so</em> well for once....]]>

    <body><![CDATA[A fairly generic Dresden book, but an enjoyable one. It seemed less formulaic, but that may just be because there was a longer gap than usual between this one and the last one I read.<br/><br/>A bit more character development, and a new love interest for Harry. Mostly some repeat characters - some...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/49435465">more...</a>]]></body>
