Reviews
Praise for Jim Butcher and the Dresden Files "Think Buffy the Vampire Slayer starring Philip Marlowe."-- Entertainment Weekly "Superlative."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "One of the most enjoyable marriages of the fantasy and mystery genres on the shelves."-- Cinescape "Butcher...spins an excellent noirish detective yarn in a well-crafted, supernaturally-charged setting. The supporting cast is again fantastic, and Harry's wit continues to fly in the face of a peril-fraught plot."-- Booklist (starred review) "What's not to like about this series'...It takes the best elements of urban fantasy, mixes it with some good old-fashioned noir mystery, tosses in a dash of romance and a lot of high-octane action, shakes, stirs, and serves."--SF Site "A tricky plot complete with against-the-clock pacing, firefights, explosions, and plenty of magic. Longtime series fans as well as newcomers drawn by the SciFi Channel's TV series based on the novels should find this supernatural mystery a real winner."-- Library Journal "What would you get if you crossed Spenser with Merlin? Probably you would come up with someone very like Harry Dresden, wizard, tough guy and star of [the Dresden Files]."-- The Washington Times

Synopsis
An all-new Dresden Files story headlines this urban fantasy short story collection starring the Windy City's favorite wizard. The world of Harry Dresden, Chicago's only professional wizard, is rife with intrigue--and creatures of all supernatural stripes. And you'll make their intimate acquaintance as Harry delves into the dark side of truth, justice, and the American way in this must-have short story collection. From the Wild West to the bleachers at Wrigley Field, humans, zombies, incubi, and even fey royalty appear, ready to blur the line between friend and foe. In the never-before-published "Zoo Day," Harry treads new ground as a dad, while fan-favorite characters Molly Carpenter, his onetime apprentice, White Council Warden Anastasia Luccio, and even Bigfoot stalk through the pages of more classic tales. With twelve stories in all, Brief Cases offers both longtime fans and first-time readers tantalizing glimpses into Harry's funny, gritty, and unforgettable realm, whetting their appetites for more to come from the wizard with a heart of gold. The collection includes: * "Curses," from Naked City , edited by Ellen Datlow * "AAAA Wizardry," from the Dresden Files RPG * "Even Hand," from Dark and Stormy Knights , edited by P. N.

    This book arrived quickly and packed better than I have seen other used books from other vendors here… So thrilled about that… usually I order a new or VG book and the sloppy packaging ( no or little protection in shipping…and because of that… I receive a banged up….ripped… or dented book… Now this book was described as VG… but I thought it was excellent! Definitely Saving this seller! So very happy with everything!!!

    Great shipping, arrived very quickly. Upon opening product I was disappointed because the description didn't match the product. I contacted the seller with pictures and within a day they replied and issued a refund. Great customer service!

    It shipped quickly (although USPS moved it in error around the system and I did not receive it for 12 days), was well-packaged, and is in great condition. It works perfectly and is new, as described. Great value thank you!

  • Short snippets of the Dresden Universe.

    A great collection of short stories set in the Dresden Files universe. For fans of the series, it explains some of the orphaned references in the main stories (like Harry's interaction with the Genoskwa in Skin Game). Others tell the tales of other characters in the universe. It even sets up some stuff to be seen in Peace Talks and the future YA series about Maggie and Mouse. A great read.
