Elevated into the front rank of urban fantasy heroes (SF Site), professional wizard Harry Dresden is pledged to fight crime, banish evil, and outwit the masters of dark arts in the shadowy corners of Chicago. Harry, the only wizard in the Chicago phone book, is drafted to look into rumors of black magic in the Windy City. And if that wasn't enough, he must help the daughter of an old friend, whose boyfriend was the only one in a room where an old man was attacked. He insists he didn't do it.

Harry Dresden, Warden of the White Council of Wizards, is sent in search of black magic practitioners, and finds himself not only fighting horror movie monsters, but Charity too! He is aided by the Lady of Summer and her Knight, Murphy, and of course Bob, as he discovers that something or someone is using them. Everyone is being played, but to what end?

Can he do all that when his power is all tapped out?

As usual the Harry Dresden books are wonderful and hard to put down. The author has a character that is unusual for a detective. A wizard that cares for his clients and has a great gift but you don't want to get on his bad side. Love the book and all the action. The characters such as Bob, the talking skull, Mouse the dog and his vampire half brother make for a book you have to keep reading.
