Blood Rites - Jim Butcher ... walking plant monster. Still, there's something more troubling than usual about his newest case. The film's producer believes he's the target of a sinister entropy curse - but it's the woman around him who are dying, in increasingly spectacular ways. Harry's doubly frustrated because he got involved with this bizarre mystery only as a favour to Thomas, his flirtatious, self- absorbed vampire acquaintance of dubious integrity. Thomas has a personal stake in the case Harry can't quite figure out, until his investigation leads him straight to Thomas's oversexed vampire family. Harry's about to discover that Thomas's family tree has been hiding a shocking secret: a revelation that will change Harry's life forever.

Backup is a novelette written by Jim Butcher, illustrated by Mike Mignola and published by Subterranean Press. Jim Butcher is a fantasy writer, best known for The Dresden Files series of books (and a TV series of the same name) in which Harry Dresden (Chicago s first, and only, Wizard Private Investigator) gets into all kinds of bother while trying to investigate several matters (it s never as simple as he thinks it s going to be).

is certainly no Harry Potter fantasy... This is proving to be a highy refreshing and entertaining series from a very talented up-and-coming writer. Comparable to Kelley Armstrong in style, Jim Butcher still manages to take a cliched, oft-repeated genre and install it with new blood and life. Certainly this puts the T.V series of the same name to shame and Harry Dresden s character is both believable and credible as he attempts to deal with situations about as far from the ordinary as you can get. I also enjoy the way that much of Dresden s back-story is still a mystery to the reader with plenty of subtle hints and revelations being dropped with each successive novel in ...

go bump in the night and Harry must protect them without blowing his cover. He is a very funny character with a dry wit and a noble heart. Jim Butcher is not scared to get Harry beaten up or make him fail as this makes the character that much more fun to read about. The well developed characterisations continue with the people that Harry meets throughout the book. He has a sidekick of sorts in a very old talking skull. He also has a frosty relationship with a female police officer, Detective Murphy, who he aids in capturing goblins and ghoulies. She is one of a few people that know that there are monsters out there and she heads a group set up to destroy them. I ...

Great read, a book you cant put down None

A brilliant exploration of philosophical ideals, memorable characters, funny Very talky (but it's good talky so not really a disadvantage)

Sci-Fi & Fantasy - Butcher, Jim

Gritty Detective drama with vampires and moody spirits thrown in Jim Butcher is very selective what he reveals about Dresden's shady and often chequered past

Sci-Fi & Fantasy - Lightner, Lee

Well writing, engaging plot and thoroughly enjoyable piece of sci-fi Occasionally the perspective causes some brief confusion
