This is the discussion area for the Buddy Read of

Ghost Story (The Dresden Files, #13) by Jim Butcher


We will start reading this book in May 3rd.

Please feel free to join in and read with us at any time :)


Description:
Chicago wizard Harry Dresden gets a taste of the dead life in this novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

In his life, Harry’s been shot, stabbed, sliced, beaten, burned, crushed, and tortured. And after someone puts a bullet through his chest and leaves him to die in the waters of Lake Michigan, things really start going downhill.

Trapped between life and death, he learns that his friends are in serious trouble. Only by finding his murderer can he save his friends and move on—a feat which would be a lot easier if he had a body and access to his powers. Worse still are the malevolent shadows that roam Chicago, controlled by a dark entity that wants Harry to suffer even in death.

Now, the late Harry Dresden will have to pull off the ultimate trick without using any magic—or face an eternity as just another lost soul...

Being a ghost might have some advantages, lol. Poor Mort being haunted by Harry :) And poor Molly.

I love how Murphy goes on fighting the supernatural after Harry dies. She didn't have to, she wasn't part of that world. But instead of sitting around she takes charge and helps to pull everyone together.

Yes, always loved Murphy. She definitely should wield the blades. Love me some Butters, too! On one hand I hate what Leanansidhe is doing to Molly but she is preparing Molly to protect herself.

Holy Moly! A lot is happening in this one. Dresden definitely gets to see how much impact he had on Chicago and his friends. I so didn't remember what happened in this one. Of course, Dresden has plans. They don't always work out exactly the way he wants them to, though. Just finished. WOW! Just WOW!!!!

There is a lot in this one. Harry can see now who his true friends really are. Daniel is getting pretty tough, too.

Finished. He didn't get out of being the Winter Knight, but at least he gets to do it on his terms.
