Book Review: Dark Magic Fun
Summary: 5 Stars
The ride continues for wizard/private investigator Harry Dresden. With his most recent adventure, "Small Favor", blasting its way to the New York Times Bestseller's list, his other adventures continue to grow in popularity. In "Blood Rites", Harry Dresden becomes more than just an intriguing character - he becomes an urban fantasy icon.
Fresh off a case involving demon monkeys chucking flaming poop, Harry is ready for something a bit more upscale than his usual fare. Of course, in usual, twisted fashion, he gets his wish: he's hired to solve a string of accidents on a maverick porn director's latest production.
Just when Harry thought life was getting dull.
Things quickly turn from embarrassing to deadly when Harry discovers he's been sucked into affairs way over his head. Someone has unleashed an entropy curse upon the porn mogul, but it's not attacking him; rather important women in his life. Women are dying, and of course - entropy curses are the worst things to unravel. That's not all, however. Somehow, White Court vampires - succubi - are involved, which of course involves Thomas, a white court vampire acquaintance who's shown an odd affinity for Harry as of late. Hidden there is a family secret that will change Harry forever.
Many urban-fantasies have sprung up in the past several years, but the Dresden Files continues to outshine them all. Harry is a delightfully rough, brusque character of surprising depth, accompanied by a razor sharp wit. Butcher writes with deft and skill, which should guarantee Harry Dresden a long future, indeed.
