    I am a fan of The Dresden Files. If you’re not familiar, it’s a series of 18 books written by Jim Butcher. The first book was published 26 years ago. In the books, you dive into the world of Harry Dresden, a private investigator in Chicago. Add in a bit of a noir atmosphere, good humor, and a bit of a buddy cop feel at times thanks to Harry’s consulting work with Karrin Murphy, police officer at Chicago PD. You get the idea. Oh, and I forgot a tiny detail: Harry is a wizard! In this world, vampires, werewolves, and fairies are real. Harry Dresden is listed in the Chicago phone book:HARRY DRESDEN — WIZARDLost Items Found. Paranormal Investigations.Consulting. Advice. Reasonable Rates.No Love Potions, Endless Purses, Parties or Other EntertainmentI personally discovered the series 3 years ago via the audiobooks. I listened to the 4 first books and was hooked. It helped that the audiobooks were narrated by James Marsters (yes, Spike from Buffy!). He is a great narrator and his voice work was a perfect match for the series.Fast forward to today, Twelve Months, the 18th book in the series just landed on my Kindle. You can order yours from the author’s store here.Time to get back into the story! It’s been a while since the last book though, so I put together a refresher (thank you Claude) that I sent to my Kindle. I’ll read it, as well as the last few chapters of the last book, to get ready before to start the new book.If you could use a refresher too, feel free to download the PDF below.The Dresden Files: Series Summary (Books 1-17) — A comprehensive recap to prepare you for Book 18Download

    Terry Pratchett’s on Tolkien’s influence on fantasy:J.R.R. Tolkien has become a sort of mountain, appearing in all subsequent fantasy in the way that Mt. Fuji appears so often in Japanese prints. Sometimes it’s big and up close. Sometimes it’s a shape on the horizon. Sometimes it’s not there at all, which means that the artist either has made a deliberate decision against the mountain, which is interesting in itself, or is in fact standing on Mt. Fuji.#ttrpg #discworld #pratchett #books
