Cool Dresden Files vs. Codex Alera . . .

As for the other two, I like fantasy better than urban fantasy although Dresden is obviously much more popular. I am leaning towards Codex Alera but wanted some opinions.
sidenote: not happy about the publisher pricing of his ebooks at amazon...ebooks that are several years old and cost more than the paperbacks is not cool
Logically, of course, you're correct. But if you could possibly elaborate on what it is about 'Fantasy' that makes you like it "better than" 'Urban Fantasy' then more relevant opinions can be formulated by the folks who respond to your request.
