This may p*** people off so here I go… the only characters I really liked and kept me interested was bridge 4 specifically Kaladin and Syl… the rest I read to get back to bridge 4 …the writing was elaborated to an extent that was not needed but is understandable.. I am a huge fan of Steven Erikson and was hoping I would feel the same way about Brandon Sanderson‘s books :( I don‘t but because the writing is okay and I loved bridge 4 I‘ll read more

What can you do to present vampires in a different light… give them weakness and human issues… this first book provides a different view on vampires and it hits all the marks … a great way to start a series can‘t wait to read the next book

I liked the main characters and the overall theme… the way that some of the book reads is unclear as it pertains to the plot… some quick movements between the crimes and the conclusion of the arrest was not as descriptive as I would like …but I liked it overall as it was a unique read

I wasn‘t sure I would like this but the hilarious bob helped in a few different ways… I enjoyed Harry and how easily he got himself into trouble… and how he resolved the trouble… good read… thinking about getting the second book to see where certain characters evolve

thegirlwiththelibrarybag I loved this series. One of the first urban fantasy series that I discovered (via an anthology) back when urban fantasy and paranormal romance were really taking off. I lost track of it when the author took an extended hiatus but I have good memories! (edited) 1mo
DogMomIrene I loved this one too. I haven‘t followed through on any long series in a while, but when I decide to tackle one, Dresden is definitely on my list. 1mo
DaveGreen7777 Bob the Skull needs his own spinoff series! 😂💀 1mo
Ddzmini @thegirlwiththelibrarybag and @DaveGreen7777 I completely agree @DogMomIrene yes I‘m not sure when I‘ll get to the other books in this series (edited) 1mo
