Harry Dresden, Chicago's only professional wizard, takes a case that starts with blackmail and ends with necromancers raising an army of the undead. When a cult of dark sorcerers d ecides to bring back an ancient god of death during Halloween, Harry has three days to stop them — while dodging hit men, riding a reanimated dinosaur, and staying alive long enough to save the city. Jim Butcher's seventh Dresden Files novel cranks the supernatural chaos to eleven, mixing noir detective work with exploding zombies and polka-powered magic. The action is relentless, the stakes are apocalyptic, and Harry's wisecracks keep coming even when he's outmatched and bleeding. Perfect for fans of urban fantasy who like their magic systems crunchy and their body counts high. Show more
