Hi , I ' m reading this . <| sep |> I disagree . I haven ' t read the later novels , as another poster said they don ' t have as much mystery elements . But I think they ' re firmly paranormal mystery novels . Much like Dead Until Dark , or Guilty Pleasures , each book has some mystery and by the end Harry is able to solve it . I ' ve read many non paranomal detective novels , and I think Dresden Files follows the same pattern . The style reminded me a lot of A is for Alibi , or other late 80 ' searly 90 ' s detective novels . I don ' t think that changes just because there ' s paranormal elements thrown in . <| sep |> John Frusciante The Will To Death Blind Pilot 3 Rounds And A Soundx 2 oChad Vangaalen Rabid Bits Of Time <| sep |> Thanks mate .
