Storm Front (The Dresden Files, #1)

“Paranoid? Probably. But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face.�
I'd read one other Dresden Files book (Changes #12), but decided I should go back and start from the beginning with Jim Butcher's Storm Front. I like the Harry Dresden character and the world Butcher created in which Dresden works as a detective of the supernatural (or wizard for hire). It reminded me of the detective noir of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett; however, there is another world evoked that Butcher only begins to explore in this debut novel in the series. I'm not sure if the series will ever be one of my favorites, but Storm Front was an entertaining read. 3.75 stars

It's an entertaining series. I finished 3 and I plan to read more.
