I pretty much read book 1 to book 8 in succession and wanted to try something else for a while. Once I read a few other books I got the urge to read the Dresden files again. Very much enjoying White night, I won't go into details due to spoilers, but I'm more into this one than Proven guilty, although I did enjoy it. |

With Wild Cards you cover everything from straight up superhero to magic to technology based powers. If you're considering it, I recommend starting at book one, although you could jump on at the newest trilogy.

It would be nice to see a Dresden files RPG conversion to the Runequest system (like Legend/MRQ2).

I finished Ever After. The plot was fun. Rachel's dialogue was silly as per usual and her rigid moral stance made me want to smack her a few times. I'll give it 4/5 stars.

That's a good idea. I follow several unfinished series and it's so easy to forget details between novels.

Yeah, my speed-reading method is to read just the first and last words on each page!

If you're a fan of Hugh Howey's Wool Omnibus you might want to look at my most recent post in the Wool 1,2,3,4,5 thread.

Back in the first quarter of 2012 I posted the first of this three part video. This time I'm going to re-post it and include the other 2 parts.
