Took me 5 days to finish this book. The only reason it took me so much time because I read it in the middle of my term final. 
 Addictively thrilling... once you start it, it's hard to put it down. Something is always happening. One incident after another. I wanted to finish it in one day. But damn exam... 
 I am a very impatient person when it comes to good books. Thanks to Rizwan vai who took out his time to convince me that Dresden files is worth another try after I felt very disappointed reading Storm Front. I skipped Fool Moon as I heard that the story starts kicking at Grave Peril. Well, it was not difficult getting around this without reading fool moon. I have to say, my time paid of brilliantly. I love magic and the magical world, spells, wand, faeries, potions. It has spells. It doesn't have a wand. But it has love potion :P 
 Enough about the book. The best way to find how much good this book is to read it yourself. Now let's talk a little about Mr. Dresden. Dresden is a badass. And I like badass people like Harry Dresden. He is funny and very much human. He never losses his sense of humor, not even in crisis. 
 "I still can't believe," Michael said, sotto voce, "that you came to the Vampires' Masquerade Ball dressed as a vampire." "Not just a vampire," I said, "a cheesy vampire. Do you think they got the point?" 
 He is a wizard, hero of the series but he has his own fears. Fears of losing, dying, loving like a normal being just like any of us. He has flaws just like any people. And it made him so much likable. He felt angry, defeated, tired, lost, terrified. Yet he pushed himself to finish the evil. He is willing to push himself till he die. That's what make him the hero of this series. 
 I also like Micheal and Bob very much. With the righteousness of Micheal and chatter of Bob, they make the perfect combination with Dresden. 
 "Michael half-smiled. "The Lord will never give you a burden bigger than your shoulders can bear, Harry. All we can do is face what comes and have faith." 
 I gave him a sour glance. "I need to get myself some bigger shoulders, then. Someone in accounting must have made a mistake." 
 "Holy shit," I breathed. "Hellhounds." 
 "Harry," Michael said sternly. "You know I hate it when you swear." 
 "You're right. Sorry. Holy shit," I breathed, "heckhounds." 
 P.S. I am giving it 4* because I am expecting better books of the series ahead. 
 My New Year Resolution: I am going to read the whole Dresden series this year.
