BTW I just finished Ghost Story, the newest in the series and

Wow!!! I loved it...

I can't believe I've found that rare series that doesn't get bad after so many books.

no, cage is in costume for the movie the sorcerer's apprentice. he was also an executive producer of that movie as well as executive producer of the dresden files tv series, and both the wicker man and shadow of the vampire movies.

Oh alright, he's forgiven, except in his failure to find Dresden a suitable home, even if that wasn't his job! He's Nicholas Cage for goodness sakes, nephew of Francis Ford Coppola, you're telling me the man didn't have enough clout to pull some strings and make things happen?? [/rant]

I think Dresden will always look like this to me:

That'll do. That will certainly do!

I liked the guy who played Harry on the TV show, but I love the way James reads the books. He's got Harry's voice down so well.

Yeah.. What I'm finding is the books get better with each volume. Hoping it continues, though with a series this big there's bound to be some weak ones.

In the show: Temperance is a bachelorette brilliant anthropologist with an odd lack of social understandings. In the books shes married or divorced (I can't remember) and a mother, with an icy type exterior.
i don't percieve the tv harry as the same harry as is in the books. for one he's not hardly snarky at all and has very little humor in his replies to the other characters and in his narration. he's too short as well.

Differences I admit, I have not noticed, but then again I've only watched one episode of the show recently.

i had viewed the entire tv series their first time around on syfy before ever discovering the books. for some reason that i don't fathom i've never pictured the harry of the books as looking or sounding anything like paul blackthorn. i liked the tv series a lot, which was the reason i sought out the books, but for some reason that i don't quite understand the two different iterations of harry dresden remain totally seperate in my head.
