Wow Butcher's been working out! LOL!

Has he dropped the name (and possible release date) of his steampunk series as yet?

I've never before seen him not wearing a black t-shirt.

There's still this very short page on his web site.

Cinder Spires

Jim’s next project is a Steampunk series called The Cinder Spires. He’s currently writing book 1, The Aeronaut’s Windlass. We’ll let you know when we have a release date!

Started my reread, but started at Grave Peril. I will probably not make before the next installment arrives, but fine. I skipped the first two, because I read them already recently.

Amazing how quickly you are drawn in again... Almost missed my trainstation this morning.

While on vacation watched the whole TV-Serie while the supervising the kids to go to sleep. I had to get a bit used to Paul Blackthorne as Harry, but I felt he really grew into the series. From the beginning I viewed the series as loosely based on the books and then it is quite a good view. The only tv character that really felt 'off' was Ancient Mai. Somehow that character didn't convince me. That being said, I think I liked the episode where they are trapped in Harry's house (Things that go bump) the best. It is a shame they stopped the serie. A serie like that are too few....

Oh well, lets view Doctor Who again before the new season starts...

...and then there was this post of mine from 07-04-2013 where he reads from the first book from The Cinder Spires series, The Aeronaut’s Windlass.

Yeah, I agree, there's a lot of these kind of moments scattered all through the series.

Cool Jim Butcher Tus-con

This suffers from marginal sound quality and ends quite abruptly, sorry!

OOPS! I was wrong and was able to find the rest of the panel!

Jim and Shannon Butcher at Tus-con 37 in Tucson AZ. The Panel is Urban Fantasy vs. Paranormal Romance.

Cool DragonCon 2013 - Jim Butcher Panel


Sep 3, 2013

Jim's panel at DragonCon from Sunday, September 1, 2013. The quality isn't that great as we didn't have fantastic seats (good enough to see the screen from) but we were fairly close to a speaker so the audio should be good.

Two suggestions:


Frost Burned (Mercy Thompson #7) by Patricia Briggs


Ever After (The Hollows #11) by Kim Harrison

These are the most recent novels in their respective series.

Maybe I'll try the Patricia Briggs ones.
I'm already a big fan of Kim Harrison! I'm all up to date on the Hollows already.
Thanks for the tip.
