I Can't Think Of Anything To Say...: Storm Front

Storm Front is part of the Dresden Files. Storm Front is an Urban Fantasy. It sets the scene with Harry Dresden the only wizard in Chicago, trying to make money working for the Chicago PDs special investigations. He isn't very successful, manly because know one  believes that the darker side of Chicago actually exists.

Storm Front is perhaps a book more aimed at the masculine side of the population. However I think that whatever your gender this is still an excellent book. This is one of those rare books where you can't honestly say you've ever read anything similar. This isn't a book I ever think will be famous but it certainly is a best seller. Despite magic being heavily included in the story line which can be a bit confusing, this is a real edge of your seat mystery/ thriller. You get the sense of a real person behind the story, with the writer dropping subtle hints about Harry's past you are dying to know more. The magic included although it can be a bit complex, is well... i suppose the only way to describe it is realistic.  It has that rare wonderful quality that you can imagine magic being like that. It isn't wishy washy, it isn't easy as pie and there are quieter things as well as the explosions  featuring in the fight scenes. Jim Butcher creates a whole new, entirely realistic world. You can say what you like about the book but you can't deny that.

'Magic, it can get a guy killed'
