Quote:
Harry Dresden has traveled to rural Boone Mill to smoke out the Nevernever refugees responsible for the murders of two siblings. Unfortunately, the quiet little town has proven to be treacherous. Dresden has made the cursed Talbots’ salvation his own personal crusade — but a bloodline can’t be cleansed without a blood sacrifice!

(By the way, I've always been curious: How does a wizard who inadvertently fries every television he comes near know so much about Star Trek and Star Wars?)
Someone point this guy to the book/page where Harry describes going to the drive-in theater with Bob to watch movies.

I find it interesting that the older the Gruffs get the smaller they are.

Just a guess, but maybe the older Gruffs were not nourished as well back in the days when they were kids and it stunted their growth?!

I thought each successive older gruff got larger and more powerful.

That was why Harry was readjusting his aim for the elder Gruff higher and higher... until he found out that greater size was not necessarily linked to greater power.

Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is.

Sorry couldn't help quoting Yoda there.
