Book Reviews of Dead Beat (The Dresden Files, Book 7)
Book Review: Wonderful characters! Lots of action.
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this series, love the character of Harry Dresden and all his friends. This was an action filled book and carried on the series very well. The audio books read by James Marsters are very well done also. I've listened to the first four he read. This book continues the war between the White Council and the Red Court of vampires. You find out more about the White Council and it's members. Harry is developing more in each book. Highly recommend this book and the whole series. It's one of my favorite series of books. My favorite book so far in the series is probably Summer Knight.Book Review: great book

i'm 1/2 way into the this book and am really enjoying it. loved the first 6 dresden books. great style of fantasy writing, great plots, and endearing characters (even some of the ones that aren't human!). each dresden book builds upon the other but can also be picked up out of order and still be totally enjoyed! book arrived in a timely manner and in mint condition.Book Review: An amazing novel
Summary: 4 Stars
Dead Beat is the novel that got me excited about the Dresden Files again. Blood Rites was a downer and I was finished with this series. But someone gave me a copy of Dead Beat and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters in this novel were magnificent. The three necromancers and the Erkling and drama from Mab kept the excitement rolling in this novel. I felt this novel had lots of action and was a great story that could stand alone outside the series.
This novel begins with a meeting with Mavra, where Harry is forced to recover a book of spells for her. However, this book is also being pursued by three necromancers, all more powerful than Harry. The necromancers are seeking to summon the Erkling, and to harnass his power. Which ever of them harnass this power, would be like a god. The ending with Sue had me laughing for a while. This novel is great and I highly recommend it if you have enjoyed the series so far.
Book Review: Dead Beat is Dead Best!
Summary: 5 Stars
Jim Butcher pulls out all the stops on his maniacally wild imagination in this installment of the Dresden Files. This is absolutely my favorite Dresden book. I don't know how Butcher can ever top this one, but I'm willing to read every line of every new book he writes while he tries. Book Review: Worth reading!
Summary: 5 Stars
These books are great! If you love science fiction you will love these books. The author is funny, witty and holds your interest from cover to cover. I ordered the complete set and read through it in a week! I hope they bring the television series back to SciFi. It is more entertaining a series that SciFi brought back, Dr. Who, or as I call it "the doctor's non habit forming sleep remedy"! I'm going to reread them soon since I enjoyed them so much! I'm sure there were things I missed on the first go around. I'm also looking forward to the next book in the series.
