Hi Barb! How was this one? I watched the Dresden TV series on Sci Fi a couple years ago and thought it was an interesting story line.

1235924 I picked this one up mostly because of the popularity of urban fantasy novels. I wanted to see what the buzz was all about. This one reads like a modern day Raymond Chandler novel with wizards! Nothing too deep or earth provoking here, but it was definitely a fun, easy and entertaining read.

Reading the book has made me curious about the TV series. I might need to check it out.

1235924 Loved it! I'm not much of a fantasy reader, but Mr. Martin is winning me over. I'm debating about starting on the second book in the series.
