Book Reviews of Death Masks (The Dresden Files, Book 5)
Book Review: Stakes Are Too High-But Still a Good Read
Summary: 4 Stars
While still a rip-roaring, stay-up-until-the-wee-hours good read, the fifth installment in the Dresden Files series left me a little cold. The more mature and introspective Harry is a much more enjoyable character, however... all the sub-plots never seemed to pull together satisfactorily, and the bad guys are too powerful to believe that our favorite wisecracking gumshoe escapes. (Suspension of disbelief can only go so far) From what I have read in subsequent books, Butcher is laying groundwork for future events, but puh-lease.
Summary of Death Masks (The Dresden Files, Book 5)
Now in hardcover for the first time- book five in the New York Times bestselling Dresden Files series!Harry Dresden, Chicago's only practicing professional wizard, should be happy that business is pretty good for a change. But he also knows that whenever things are going good, the only way left for them to go is bad. Way bad.
Recent examples: A duel with the lethal champion of the Red Court, who must kill Harry to end the war between vampires and wizards.Hit men using Harry for target practice.The missing Shroud of Turin-and the possible involvement of Chicago's most feared mob boss.A handless and headless corpse the Chicago police need identified.
Not to mention the return of Harry's ex-girlfriend Susan, who's still struggling with her semi-vampiric nature-and who seems to have a new man in her life.
Some days, it just doesn't pay to get out of bed. No matter how much you're charging.
