For me the charm is not what is written (about), but how.
Well said.
I got to think about it a bit. Not exactly sure if you meant all of it to be well said or part of it. The part I imagined you responded to was the part in bold. When I wrote that, I meant it merely concerning The Dresden Files, but it applies in my case also for anything I read. It made me realize that I really really need to get over my fear of being disappointed in the upcoming Aeronaut's Windlass and go ahead and preorder it (when it becomes available). Subject matter is questionable, again, just like it was with Codex Alera. But, experience told me that there is little risk in anything Jim Butcher writes to be disappointed about.

So thank you for reinforcing my desire to preorder Jim's next book, even though my wallet is not going to like you . It probably will be that I get hooked on another series - having to wait on both to finish (Dresden and Cinder Spires). And I doubt I can wait until it is finished - I was lucky that I started Codex Alera only after it was completely finished.
