...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 666 Views
To be honest, the first two books are a bit formulaic - 22/06/2010 04:27:01 PM 469 Views
First three, for me - 22/06/2010 04:59:49 PM 443 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 191 Views
They're short books! *NM* - 22/06/2010 05:20:43 PM 172 Views

I stopped at the end of 3 (or 4), so maybe I'll start again *NM* - 25/06/2010 12:00:46 PM 169 Views
The first book really isn't a good example of the series. - 22/06/2010 04:27:45 PM 442 Views
This is a good reply. *NM* - 22/06/2010 05:10:21 PM 159 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 452 Views
Which is the way that it should be. - 22/06/2010 07:22:42 PM 395 Views
Not really - 22/06/2010 05:52:22 PM 448 Views
I may abandon the read altogether and just read something else. - 22/06/2010 06:24:36 PM 464 Views
Do you like Fitzgerald's writing? - 22/06/2010 10:14:25 PM 422 Views
Yes. For reasons I can't even fathom. - 23/06/2010 01:49:33 AM 402 Views

Yeah...uh...I'm probably going to finish this book. - 23/06/2010 01:50:19 AM 428 Views
Good idea. - 23/06/2010 04:29:23 PM 393 Views
Let me clarify: the book may be finished at some point in some year. - 23/06/2010 09:53:43 PM 418 Views
They are lovely. - 23/06/2010 09:57:28 PM 377 Views
