Summary: The Dresden Files gets better and better...
Review: When the ghosts of Chicago go postal, who else are you going to call for help but Harry Dresden, professional wizard? Harry's backup is Michael Carpenter, Knight of the Cross and wielder of the sword Amoracchius, one of three swords containing a nail from the True Cross. Harry and Michael discover evidence that the ghosts are being tortured, by someone or something, for reasons unknown. The barrier between the Nevernever and the real world are strained to their limits, allowing more powerful, more dangerous ghosts to visit our (mostly non-believing of the supernatural) world. But are the ghosts the real problem, or merely part of something more complex? Butcher keeps the action fast-paced - you can't stop at the end of a chapter, you have to see what happens next. Harry always tries to do the right thing, even if it entails risking his life. This time, however, there's much more at risk and Harry's friends will pay the price if he fails. I'm not sure how Harry will deal with the consequences of his actions in future books, but I certainly want to see how Butcher follows through with a complicated and unique character such as Harry Dresden.

Summary: Delightful! Best yet in the series
Review: With "Grave Peril", Butcher's style seems to be gaining momentum. The rapid pacing, tongue-in-cheek cliff-hangers, and over-the-top humor strongly invoke Harry Harrison's classic "Stainless Steel Rat" series. This is a real page turner that left me wanting more. Although I haven't read the fourth book yet, I'm definitely looking forward to it.

Summary: It keeps better and better
Review: Yes, I am a fan now. I am completely in love. Jim Butcher is now my favourite writer and Harry Dresden is now my favourite character ever. The story is darker than the previous ones and it was equally well writen. Harry Dresden show more about himself. The way he deals with him own fear is a kind of example to everyone. Perfect, that's all I can say.
