Publisher Description
In this novel in Jim Butcher’s #1 New York Times bestselling series, an old debt puts Chicago wizard Harry Dresden in harms way... Harry’s life finally seems to be calming down. The White Council’s war with the vampiric Red Court is easing up, no one’s tried to kill him lately, and his eager apprentice is starting to learn real magic. For once, the future looks fairly bright. But the past casts one hell of a long shadow. Mab, monarch of the Sidhe Winter Court, calls in an old favor from Harry. Just one small favor he can’t refuse...one that will trap Harry Dresden between a nightmarish foe and an equally deadly ally, and one that will strain his skills—and loyalties—to their very limits. And everything was going so well for once...

"4.5 Stars I found all the action at the beginning a little much. I felt like I didn't get a chance to catch my breath in between fights. That said, it was a wonderful story as usual. I love the characters and the dialogue between them. The ending was very satisfying and the audio performance by James Marsters was excellent."

" Great story and great narration! This is a terrific series. "
— emma smith, 6/10/2017 -
" I always enjoy the Dresden novels but if you don't read them in order, you miss a lot of the store line. I have read them hit and miss but am now listening to them in order and really am enjoying them. "

" This guy can't catch a break. "

" Jim Butcher did not disappoiont on this one. I loved it! Could not put the book down. "
— Joanna, 12/28/2013 -
" I'm not sure why but this book was not as exciting as others in the series. "
— Lisa, 12/17/2013 -
" This is probably one of the better Dresden Files. It had all of the great characters we love, and it was a fun read. Like all of his books, though, there is quite a bit of language and sexual innuendo. I think I liked it better because there were fewer scary monsters/images. "
— Jill, 12/1/2013 -
" I'm really not sure about the divine influences on Harry's story, or the path that Michael is on, or how disconnected and coniving the faery queens are - but, its still a good story and lots of fun. "
— Howie, 10/30/2013 -
" loved it, adore this series "
— sue, 10/27/2013 -
" Harry at his best. A wonderful read. part mystery, part fantasy series. Harry, the wizard for hire, gets in another bind, gets beat up and solves the crime. No spoilers here. Loved the Book. Excited to buy the new book, sad to finish it. "
— Grunblau, 10/25/2013 -
" The plot thichens and it's a wild ride with lots of turns and curves! Did you get it ? I just loved it! "
— Indigo, 10/24/2013 -
" definitely has been fun reading this series... Thanks Marie for letting me borrow your books!!!! "
— James, 10/16/2013 -
" Dark, gritty, and wholly entertaining. Not happy about one of the characters in the book - but I'll not spoil any surprises. "
— Neil, 8/19/2013 -
" The series really hits its stride with this one. Only one more favor owed to the Queen of Air and Darkness... "
— Kyle, 8/16/2013 -
" Morgan makes so much more sense after this one. "
— Mary, 6/3/2013 -
" Very fast paced with the return of the dendarians. Dresden again goes uber-power, but still fun. Not sure where the series is going though... "
— joby, 5/7/2013 -
" I was really disappointed by this one, and I can't say why. This is the only book in the Dresden Files that I didn't read several times. I hope he redeems himself next book. "
— Faustinblack, 9/29/2012 -
" Another great Harry Dresden book, but I'm ready for something different from Harry. Each book is starting to run into the other. "
— Valerie, 4/28/2012 -
" These books get better as the series goes on, in my opinion. I would say the best book so far. "

" I'm getting pretty close to caught up! This wasn't my favorite by any means, but it was still pretty darn good. What can I really say about this series, ten books in? It hasn't disappointed me ever, that's for sure. On to the next! "
— Dawn, 7/31/2011 -
" There was some interesting character development in this novel, but it was ultimately a little too biblical for my tastes. "
— Michael, 5/14/2011 -
" It took a while, but I really like the development of the characters. The first couple are kind of light (as light as evil magic/torture/death can be!) but the issues have become more "importnat" in the later books, yay! "
— Mary, 5/9/2011 -
" I think this may be my favorite Dresden File yet. This is currently my favorite series to read and this individual book may have made it to top shelf for me. Lots of fun new items for future books. "
— Tracy, 5/9/2011 -
" While I have enjoyed this series detective/fantasy series overall I cannot help to think that Butcher has mailed it in with the last two books. In this book Harry Dresden battles a team of fallen angels with little effective help. "
— Frank, 4/21/2011 -
" Another fine mess for Harry Dresden and company. "
— Pat, 4/20/2011 -
" There is a sense of foreshadowing in this book - friendships will strengthen, trust will deepen, more powers will become involved, danger will be on the rise, and everyone's lives will be changed. It's as if this story is a deep breath before the plunge. I can't wait to start the next one! "
— Laurel, 4/19/2011 -
" So far, this is the best of the series. Plenty of Murphy and Michael without all of the Faeries in the Never-Never. I don't care for the direction of Harry's love life, and I would have liked more Bob, but still an excellent adventure. "
— Melissa, 4/17/2011 -
" The story was enjoyable, Harry still thought to much, for my liking, but in overall the plot played out just nice. "
— Meggie, 4/13/2011 -
" Good fantasy/noir-like novel. I didn't understand all the references to the previous novels in the series since I hadn't read them, but it was still fun reading. "
— Keith, 3/28/2011 -
" One of my favorites of the series, where some of the many hanging plots begin to get sewed up. (well, maybe) "
— Robert, 3/25/2011 -
" Just can't get enough of the Harry Dresden books! Maybe I'll be all caught up before the baby arrives, and I won't mind waiting for the latest one. "
— Amanda, 3/20/2011 -
" i like the series. Usually I'm not into magic/fantasy style books but dresden pulls it off for me. "
