jodymcgrath avatar reviewed on + 110 more book reviews


Harry Dresden, Chicago's practicing wizard and private detective has finally scraped up another case. Leave it to Harry to make it a doozy though. Some one has stolen the Shroud of Turin and everyone wants it. Also on the scene is the love of Harry's life, ex-girlfriend and partial vampire, Susan. Oh yes, there is also a headless armless corpse that Officer Murphy needs help with, the ongoing war between the wizards and the red vampires, 3 Knights of God (one of whoms wife still dislikes Harry a great deal), and Marcone, the local mob boss , gunning for him. Did I mention the duel to the death with a vampire mediated by a little girl? When does this man sleep?

I love this series. It is just action packed and full of wit. I will definitely be reading the next book.
