And quoting won't work - won't display the image again without jumping through hoops.

800x600 is incorrect, it's 600x600 that's the size limit!

Oh, oops. I will make them that size then - nobody ever complained about any of mine. 600x600 it is if I remember until next time.

Guess we are back to vcr quality days.

Have fun! Wait for book 7, that one is a real blast and my personal favorite. After book 4 (sorry, I didn't really like Summer Knight) it is all uphill.

I really enjoyed Book 4, but it was a very "heavy" book for lack of better terms. I had to take a break from the series. Five was a great return for me.

Summer Knight (#4) was actually the first "favorite" of the series for me; its the book that hooked me in and made me an official Dresden Files fan. There have been other favorites since then, including Dead Beat (#7), but Summer Knight will always be special to me.

WORKING FOR BIGFOOT

Subterranean Press has announced a collection of Dresden Files stories, uniting the three Bigfoot shorts previously published in other anthologies and the Humble charity bundle eariler this year. Their summary is below:

Chicago wizard for hire Harry Dresden is used to mysterious clients with long hair and legs up to here. But when it turns out the long hair covers every square inch of his latest client’s body, and the legs contribute to a nine-foot height, even the redoubtable detective realizes he’s treading new ground. Strength of a River in His Shoulders is one of the legendary forest people, a Bigfoot, and he has a problem that only Harry can solve. His son Irwin is a scion, the child of a supernatural creature and a human. He’s a good kid, but the extraordinary strength of his magical aura has a way of attracting trouble.

In the three novellas that make up Working For Bigfoot, collected together for the first time here, readers encounter Dresden at different points in his storied career, and in Irwin’s life. As a middle-schooler, in “B is For Bigfoot,” Irwin attracts the unwelcome attention of a pair of bullying brothers who are more than they seem, and when Harry steps in, it turns out they have a mystical guardian of their own. At a fancy private high school in “I Was a Teenage Bigfoot,” Harry is called in when Irwin grows ill for the first time, and it’s not just a case of mono. Finally, Irwin is all grown up and has a grown-up’s typical problems as a freshman in college in “Bigfoot on Campus,” or would have if typical included vampires.

New York Times bestseller Jim Butcher explores the responsibilities of fatherhood and the difficulties of growing up with the elements Dresden Files fans crave—detection, adventure, humor, and magic.

Limited: 1000 signed numbered hardcover copies: $60
Trade: Fully cloth-bound hardcover copies: $35
Lettered: 26 signed leatherbound copies, housed in a custom traycase: $275
