Book Reviews of White Night (The Dresden Files, Book 9)
Book Review: Harry is back, stronger but angrier than ever ....
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a strong installment in the Dresden Files. Harry has never been the cuddliest of wizards, but his anger is more frequent and he is lashing out. It doesn't help that he is being used by the White Court to their own ends. The White Court, the Vampire empire, where the rule is never approach something directly when you can do it through others. Its enough to drive him to ally himself with Marcone, the crime lord of Chicago, something Harry wouldn't have believed himself capable of.
And Thomas, his brother, seems to be stronger. Something he can only get when he is absorbing physic energy from humans. Thomas has deep secrets he won't share with Harry, some because of his divided alligence, the deepest because he fears what Harry will do if that secret is uncovered.
And "Lash" is always beneath the surface. Luring him to the dark side of magic. To pick up the coin and grow in power. And the theme of this book is the exercise of power. How the use of power changes the wielder as much as those who are on the receiving end. In the end what sort of Wizard will Harry be? Is Merlin right and Harry is not the sort to remain a warden (or even alive)? And whichever course Harry takes, Molly will go too.
A worthy part of the Dresden files that leaves many open fields for subsequent books.
Book Review: White Night
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is fantastic. Jim Butcher writes fast paced stories with plenty of plot twists. I own every book in The Dresden Files series and I would certainly recommend Jim Butcher to everyone. His character, Harry Dresden, is very quirky and fast with the quips. Harry has depth and attitude with a strong belief in good verses what is the easy road. Harry isn't without flaws but that just makes him more human and likeable. I hope the people who haven't read Jim Butcher will take the time to pick up one of his books. They won't be sorry they did.Book Review: Beyond Good!

An enjoyable read that follows what left off in the last book. Harry continues to develop as a personality and in this book you get another peek at his brother...I look forward to the next installation and I'm really wondering what is going to happen with the sword!
