Dresden Countdown!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I've got a couple short posts this week as folks make the final push for NaNo, then we'll be back to normal blogging and some fun announcements.

In other news, Cold Days is out this week!! This is one of those books I've been waiting for ALL YEAR! So excited to get back to Harry and the gang. If you haven't picked up the Dresden Files yet, give 'em a try.

  3. I've only read a short story featuring Dresden. One of these days I'll read the novels. I also checked out the first of Butcher's Furies of Calderon series, which was okay. A lot of people LOVE it.

  4. Yes, she would! We pre-ordered the book. This is the one series my husband and I have to fight over the books for! Can't wait to get my hands on Cold Days.

  6. I borrowed the first Dresden book from a friend and LOVED IT. I need to keep reading the rest of the series! That is some great, witty writing.
