The whole series - he hasn't started it yet. I keep waiting for Storm Front to move off of his to-read shelf on GR because I'm curious to find out if he likes it.\

Edited to add - he hasn't even had it on the shelf long, but you can believe I noticed it when he did. I'm not a shelf-stalker, we're GR friends so I get updates.

So are you going to do reread number 4 once the next book is released? I think it's going to be my new tradition, to reread the series from beginning to end (with Side jobs now yaaayyy!) every time a new book is released. The first 3 times I reread the series was just because I couldn't get enough of Harry .

After a release date is announced and as that date approaches it'll depend on how I feel about a re-read at that time. The probability of my 4th re-read at that time though, is pretty good I suppose.

New Series
Thought some of you might be interested to know that Jim just signed a deal for a new steampunk series.

Congrats to Jim for selling the first three books in a new steampunk series, The Cinder Spires!

From Publishers Weekly:

Penguin Group is continuing its relationship with bestselling fantasy writer Jim Butcher. The author of the Dresden Files and Codex Alera closed a seven-figure, three-book deal with his current publisher for a new series. Anne Sowards, at Roc, took world English rights to The Cinder Spires: The Aeronaut’s Windlass, and two sequels, from agent Jennifer Jackson at Donald Maass Literary. Butcher recently published the 14th book in the Dresden Files, a series that has been adapted to TV (on SyFy channel) and turned into a comic book (published by Dynamite Entertainment). The Cinder Spires, Jackson said, is set in a world “of black spires that tower for miles over a mist-shrouded surface” and follows a war between two of the Spires: Spire Albion and Spire Aurora.

At the Reddit AMA a few months ago, Jim said, “It’s kinda League of Extraordinary Gentlemen meets Sherlock meets Hornblower. There are goggles and airships and steam power and bizarre crystal technology and talking cats, who are horrid little bullies.”

Jim is still writing the first book, The Aeronaut’s Windlass, so we don’t have a release date yet. We’ll let you know as soon as there’s something to announce!

That sounds interesting. I like talking cats - wonder if Sith reappears.

Nah, would not worry too much about it. Jim whips out books pretty quick when he is motivated. Harry has been done for quite a while now, all that needs done is fill in the gaps ...

I agree, I don't think this will affect the next Dresden book being released. This new series sounds really cool, but I have to get into Codex Alera before thinking about anything else from him yet. Trying to keep myself in some kind of order. So many books, so little time .

If Jim Butcher would give a few less interviews, he might have time to get some writing done.

Do you really mean that?! He's published 20 novels 15 short stories/novellas and several (I don't know the number) comics/graphic novels since 2000. That's certainly nothing to sneeze at! At least in my opinion.
