Maybe someday I will get tired of Harry being beaten, battered, exhausted, terrified, guilt-ridden, tormented, humiliated and generally abused.

That day is not yet.

Gravil Peril is another fun ride -- action-packed, perilous, and funny. It lost a star in my rating, however, because of the multitude of typos and misspellings that kept kicking me out of the story. And because of the appearance of the phrase "Hell's bells" on nearly every page. Minor things, but they interfered with my enjoyment.

Outstanding! What a great story. Jim Butcher is the king of Urban fantasy which a comical self loathing first person perspective. Their is a pattern to his books and I do hope he breaks out of the same ole same ole. Harry goes without sleep has to borrow power from another source, makes broken promises. Murphy gets pissed at him. Yeah pretty much the same scenario but so far I am thinking that this is the best book in the series to date. Hope to finish the entire set by the end of the year.
