Could be interesting. AFTERMATH from Murphy's pov was good in a dresdenverse story sort of way but lacking a bit in terms of really giving Murphy her own voice. To an extent i put this to Butcher's lack of experience in writing female pov , because he did a better job with Marcone in EVEN HAND and Thomas in BACK-UP. So it will be very interesting to see how he does with a thoroughly messed up, powerful, young adult female character.

What was Marcone up to in Even Hand and Thomas in Back Up?

Did you read them? Cuz they're kinda straightforwards.

No I didn't read Side Jobs.

Do you want them explained for you or will we leave this off until you get around to it?

A pm would be fine so no one else would be spoiled. I don't really plan on reading that one anytime soon. I don't usually like reading backstory in a series.



Your call, but in this case i think that's like saying you won't eat the fries because you're too focused on the steak.

Can I get a baked potato and a Caesar salad instead?
OK, I think I got it, but just in case, can you say the whole thing over again? I wasn't really listening.

Actually I think it would be Dresden appropriate to get either:

  • Steak sandwich
  • Pizza
  • Burger King
And eat with a dark microbrew. I don't know if I ever remember Dresden eating a salad or any veggies.... I've always heard that chicken is considered a vegetable in Chicago.

Or if you are underage/getting BK . . . a coke would work. He seems to drink a lot of those.
