Or is it the first three?
I still enjoyed them, but if the entire series was like the first few books, I wouldn't have read them.
They get bigger and better once it hits.... book 3, I'd say.

The biggest problem with Storm Front is that the entire book was written for a creative writing class Butcher was enrolled in. That's why it, and to an extent, the next two, are so formulaic. I didn't really get into the series until book four, Summer Knight when he seems to find his own voice.
Just give it time. The books get a lot better as they continue.
Am I missing something about the Dresden Files?

I haven't read them, but I understand they're not that deep, but fun, and get better as they go on. *NM*

I'm not really feeling the "fun" just yet. I'll finish this book, though. *NM*

To be honest, the first two books are a bit formulaic

My time is valuable. I'm not giving an author three books of my time just to see if I like him. *NM*

That's true. I got through the first couple shortly. And, note, they're not BAD, they're just a bit

The first book really isn't a good example of the series.

I think the only way I would continue is if those "hints" are promising enough for me.

I may abandon the read altogether and just read something else.

Let me clarify: the book may be finished at some point in some year.
