I didn't care too much about the first book in the series, but the next installments were great.

I agree. Rivers of London series by Ben Aaronovitch is very good.

Another thing that he and Butcher have in common is they have both drifted a bit into comic books. I had to look fairly carefully a couple of times. I have nothing against comic books, mind you, just not my cup of tea these days. |

Jacka and Aaronovich seem to be the only authors I've run across who seem to a similar feel to their urban wizard books to the Dresden books. Most the others seem to be more in the urban wizard/romance genre. I will say that Simon Hawke's Wizard of 4th Street series, an old series from the late 80's, early 90's, is another series that some what reminds me of Aaronovich's books.
