From Jim Butcher comes the newest novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling Dresden Files...
Harry Dresden, Chicago’s only professional wizard, is about to have a very bad day. Because as Winter Knight to the Queen of Air and Darkness, Harry never knows what the scheming Mab might want him to do. Usually, it’s something awful.
Mab has traded Harry’s skills to pay off a debt. And now he must help a group of villains led by Harry’s most despised enemy, Nicodemus Archleone, to break into a high-security vault so that they can then access a vault in the Nevernever.
Problem is, the vault belongs to Hades, Lord of the freaking Underworld. And Dresden is dead certain that Nicodemus has no intention of allowing any of his crew to survive the experience. Dresden’s always been tricky, but he’s going to have to up his backstabbing game to survive this mess.…

Fantastic as always, you never disappoint. These books get me lost in a fun and exiting place where I can watch Harry do great things. Thank you
Never enough
I can honestly say I've never read past 4 books of any series by any author, until I read the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. The best in light hearted, thoroughly entertaining adult contemporary fantasy with bite. Actually, one could market this series under several genres: romance, thriller, gumshoe-detective-mystery, action adventure, and by no means the least, humour. So far, Mr Butcher has maintained the perfect balance between the formula he's created that we fans love in a Dresden story, and introducing new twists to keep one coming back for more. A few of his detractors complain of predictability and a lack of complexity, but they miss the point of his chief intentions: entertainment, laughter and the feel-good empowering moral allegory that one good man can make a difference; cliche, but Butcher crafts it like few others, or with as much fun. Jim has said this series may hit 22 books ... I say keep 'em comin'. May the Foo dogs be with you.
Keeps getting better
Great series that keeps getting better and better.
