Fool Moon - Jim Butcher

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.

Fool Moon - Jim Butcher

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 ...
