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 had this on my list of books to read for a long time and I finally got to it this weekend. I have to say I really loved this book, it was easy to read and I like the main character Dresden.

I finished the book in 1 1/2 days and I'm now getting ready to start the second book in the series. I can already tell these set of books are going to be great.

I would definitely recommend this book and I wish I had read it sooner.
