For those of you who have not read the series The Dresen Files by Jim Butcher, it's a crime (or should be!). It is one of the most fantastic book series to date. Harry is a wizard, who continually get's in over his head and has such a dry and sarcastic look at life you can't help but laugh and love him at the same time completely relate to his outlook! This series is so much more about a wizard (in the yellow pages of course) and reaches out to so many more people than just the typical Sci-Fi genre. Harry touches all of us and anyone who reads will be able to enjoy this series regardless of their normal reading preference. Following is a link to a blog about Harry and my response to it as well.
If this link doesn't work, just go to the link for buzzy blogs and on the left hand side you will see a category for Jim Butcher and you will see the blog under Faries And The Dresden-Verse. It captures the essance of Harry aka The Dresden Files quite well.
I have to absolutely agree that the Dresden Files is one of the greatest series out there! I have to admit the first I heard of it was the Sc-Fi TV show. And just that one season hooked me forever. And when I found out that it was a book series, I nearly fainted with pleasure! I bought the first 3 and was reading them so fast I couldn’t keep up with buying them so I was checking them out at the library to read while buying them too. I am completely in love with Harry and absolutely love his dry, sarcastic humor. And can relate to the “whatever is going to go wrong, will” I can not count the number of times I have read and re-read the series. I am addicted and not ashamed to admit it. Harry brings to life not just magic but the troubles of a mortal life, love, relationships, then throw in some vampires, sidhe, and fallen angels and you just can’t put it down! Harry is my hero!
