Book Reviews of Blood Rites (The Dresden Files, Book 6)
Book Review: Still new!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was so happy when I finished Blood Rites, because even six novels into the series, Jim Butcher managed to put something new and unexpected into it. Instead of just making bigger, badder bad guys, Butcher takes a side step and comes up with something unique, and a little bit titillating. Harry Dresdon is called to work on the set of a porn film.... Not only that, but called into it by his "friend" Thomas, the vampire. We get to see a glimpse into the inner workings of the White Vampire Court (sex vampires!) as well as exploring Dresdon's own links to the magical world and his mysterious past. Oh, and there's also that whole thing about the Black Vampire Court trying to kill him...Book Review: Very entertaining episode...nice character development
Summary: 5 Stars
Summary:
This is an excellent, highly enjoyable and fairly quick reading book. The story is well conceived, nicely executed and expands several of the characters quite a bit. Harry learns much more about his past and gets a nasty portent of his potential future.
The interaction between Murphy and Harry is better than usual. It appears that something maybe developing between them.
Characters: 5 stars -- great development
Story: 5 stars -- good concept, nice extensions to the developed world of the series
Action: 5 stars -- good pacing with consequences
I really enjoyed the book; it has hard to put down.
Book Review: This author will hold you spell bound!
Summary: 5 Stars
These books are great! If you love science fiction you will love these books. The author is funny, witty and holds your interest from cover to cover. I ordered the complete set and read through it in a week! I hope they bring the television series back to SciFi. It is more entertaining a series that SciFi brought back, Dr. Who, or as I call it "the doctor's non habit forming sleep remedy"! I'm going to reread them soon since I enjoyed them so much! I'm sure there were things I missed on the first go around. I'm also looking forward to the next book in the series.Book Review: The Dresden Files, book 6
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say it any clearer than this: you should read every book in this series. Start at the beginning and work your way through to the latest book. If you like fantasy, mystery, suspense...these books will not disappoint. Harry Dresden is an engaging and sympathetic character: funny, determined, intelligent, with just the right amount of angst in his history. And the secondary characters are each equally as interesting. If you've seen the TV series on SciFi channel, you'll love these books. And if you haven't - you should still read these books.Book Review: Great addition to the series
Summary: 5 Stars
In this latest book our favorite wizard finds out some astounding news about his mother. I won't spoil it for anybody, but I promise it's a doozy of a revelation. The dialogue is as snappy as ever. Jim Butcher introduces some new characters, and hopefully we'll see some of them again. Previous characters are more fully fleshed out. Butcher's portrayal of Harry and Murphy's deepening friendship is as great as ever. Personally I hope they stay nothing more than friends, but we'll see. All in all a terrific book.
