Storm Front by Jim Butcher

Storm Front (Dresden Files, #1)

by Jim Butcher

In the first novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling Dresden Files series, Harry Dresden’s investigation of a grisly double murder pulls him into the darkest depths of magical Chicago…

As a professional wizard, Harry Dresden knows firsthand that the “everyday” world is actually full of strange and magical things—and most of them don’t play well with humans. And those that do enjoy playing with humans far too much. He also knows he’s the best at what he does. Technically, he’s the only at what he does. But even though Harry is the only game in town, business—to put it mildly—stinks.

So when the Chicago P.D. bring him in to consult on a double homicide committed with black magic, Harry's seeing dollar signs. But where there's black magic, there's a black mage behind it. And now that mage knows Harry's name...

“A great series—fast-paced, vividly realized and with a hero/narrator who’s excellent company.”—Cinescape

I knew for a long time I wanted to start this series.My nephew loaned me this book and I really enjoyed it.
Jim Butcher is very good with his character creation of Harry Dresden,P.I.and Wizard.
Dresden is really casual and seems to stand up to most anybody,but he is fallible.
He does have a sense of humor,although it is a dry one.
I know I'm going to keep reading the series.
