If you enjoy the previous nine Dresden Files you should enjoy this one, too. It was quick and mindless, but the fun factor was largely absent. I miss the flaming-poo flinging giant monkeys found in a previous book.The usual formula is stagnate. Butcher has nothing new to say. I don't know how many more Dresden Files I am going to read. I will probably continue to pick one up from the library if I've had a especially bad day, but gone are the days when I look forward with special glee to next one. I hope the next ones pick back up.
