Thank you. Maybe I should not be so unhappy about the end after all, only because you guys appear disapointed a bit. The book was still enjoyable to you a lot? I am still at a point where every book gets better than the last, hopefully that continues until I get to Cold Days.

I was doing a spreadsheet of all the series I've been reading lately. I'm putting the book titles and publication dates on the spread and came across the oddest thing. One, it's ridiculous to find publication dates for Dresden Novels. Two, the link in the first post here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=111 I believe is incorrect. Unless these are some re-release dates for the ebooks or something. Wikipedia has these books publishing all over the place. See below from Alan's post I linked to above:
1 Storm Front [2000 November 6] 2 Fool Moon [2008 July 1] 3 Grave Peril [2008 November 4] 4 Summer Knight [2009 July 7] 5 Death Masks [2009 November 3] 6 Blood Rites [2010 July 5] 7 Dead Beat [2005 May 3] 8 Proven Guilty [2006 May 2] 9 White Night [2007 April 3] 10 Small Favor [2008 April 1] 11 Turn Coat [2009 April 7] 12 Changes [2010 April 6] 13 Ghost Story [2011 July 26] 14 Cold Days [no release date] How were the 2nd - 6th books published before the 7th - 10th? I searched all over and found most at Amazon, can anyone tell me if the below are correct? Or am I missing something when it comes to the above dates and those are actually true? Storm Front 2000 Fool Moon 2001 Grave Peril 2001 Summer Knight 2002 Death Masks 2003 Blood Rites 2004 Dead Beat 2006 Proven Guilty 2007 White Night 2008 Small Favor 2009 Turn Coat 2009 Changes 2010 Side Jobs 2011 Ghost Story 2012 Cold Days 2012 Yes I'm bored at work, and this is what I'm doing to kill time |

I bought it, too. But, when I told a friend of my plan to read it out of order (I still haven't read Changes yet) he was so horrified that I promised to save it until I'm caught up

I'm glad I started Cold Days just before Christmas: Spoiler:
Also, my new favourite word: (not really a spoiler, but wrapped it just in case anybody didn't want to see a single word out of the book) Spoiler:

I am currently reading Cold Days, but reading goes slowly. Not because of the writing, but of my lack of time. Only about 100 pages to go... I really like the book, although I am not too fond of some things. But, I have the suspicion it is there for a reason...

confused about Dead Beat
Ok, so i finished Dead Beat yesterday and still can't bring myself to start Proven Guilty. The end again is a complete surprise, as it was with all books so far. But I can't stop thinking of why some things were said. Rest of the post going to be a spoiler, actually a pretty big one of you have not finished Dead Beat.
WARNING: DO NOT OPEN IF YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED DEAD BEAT Spoiler:
