Som en professionel troldmand ved Harry Dresden, at den "normale" verden faktisk er fyldt med magiske væsner, og selvom de fleste af dem ikke bryder sig om mennesker, er der dem, der bryder sig lidt for meget om os. Han ved også, han er den bedste til det, han gør. Teknisk set, er han den eneste, der gør, hvad han gør. Men selvom han er den eneste af sin slags i byen, går forretningen mildest talt sløjt. Så da Chicago P.D. inviterer ham ind som konsulent på et dobbeltdrab med sort magi, får Harry dollartegn i øjnene. Men hvor der er sort magi, er der også en mørk magiker, der står bag. Og nu kender den magiker Harrys navn...

Just didn't grab me. Harry's a fun enough character but I never felt pulled into the plot, kept waiting for it to click and it never really did. The mystery plot moves along fine but nothing ever really raised the stakes for me, so a lot of it just felt like filler. Spent most of the book just wanting it to wrap up. Maybe will try pushing through to book 3 (heard thats when it gets better) but for now its not capturing my attention.
Didn't like it as much as I'd expected.Owing to the fact that it's the combination of mystery and wizardry,I'd thought,I would like this book,however,I found myself hating it in some parts.It was boring in the middle as hell,so boring that I stopped listening to the audiobook and picked up my ereader to read the rest,which was kind of torture!! I skipped so many pages!I really hate the way women are portrayed in this book.Nudity in one chapter put me off,although it was mentioned once that he was naked, I couldn't take it off my mind.I have always prefered first person point of view to third person,but in this case,I just felt how talkative he was.It was a dumb book,in my opinion!!But,as I said I listened to the audiobook,and I think the narrator did a really good job and made the book a bit more interesting as it is!1.5 star!!!
Saw a buddy reading this book about a wizard detective and thought “yeah that seems fun” little did I know this books would be so good. The twists and turns were semi predictable but I still ripped through this book like my life depended on it. 4.35/5 lets see what book 2-18 have to offer lol
