...bland.

Once he gets away from the whole Chekhov's Potion thing, and the dynamic with Murphy settles down (the whole "maybe you're the bad guy!" thing got old REALLY fast) it gets a lot better.


But yeah, the early books are pretty quick reads.

Am I missing something about the Dresden Files? - 22/06/2010 04:05:52 PM 661 Views
To be honest, the first two books are a bit formulaic - 22/06/2010 04:27:01 PM 466 Views
First three, for me - 22/06/2010 04:59:49 PM 440 Views
My time is valuable. I'm not giving an author three books of my time just to see if I like him. *NM* - 22/06/2010 05:16:34 PM 190 Views
They're short books! *NM* - 22/06/2010 05:20:43 PM 170 Views

I stopped at the end of 3 (or 4), so maybe I'll start again *NM* - 25/06/2010 12:00:46 PM 167 Views
The first book really isn't a good example of the series. - 22/06/2010 04:27:45 PM 439 Views
This is a good reply. *NM* - 22/06/2010 05:10:21 PM 158 Views
I think the only way I would continue is if those "hints" are promising enough for me. - 22/06/2010 05:19:06 PM 449 Views
Which is the way that it should be. - 22/06/2010 07:22:42 PM 390 Views
Not really - 22/06/2010 05:52:22 PM 443 Views
I may abandon the read altogether and just read something else. - 22/06/2010 06:24:36 PM 461 Views
Do you like Fitzgerald's writing? - 22/06/2010 10:14:25 PM 418 Views
Yes. For reasons I can't even fathom. - 23/06/2010 01:49:33 AM 396 Views

They grow up. - 22/06/2010 10:05:37 PM 421 Views
Yeah...uh...I'm probably going to finish this book. - 23/06/2010 01:50:19 AM 424 Views
Good idea. - 23/06/2010 04:29:23 PM 388 Views
Let me clarify: the book may be finished at some point in some year. - 23/06/2010 09:53:43 PM 414 Views
They are lovely. - 23/06/2010 09:57:28 PM 372 Views
