These might be the best series of audiobooks I’ve had the pleasure of listening too, and come highly recommended. And works well.Įditor’s Note: The narrator (James Marsters) does every book in the series and is absolutely phenomenal. I’m certain reading it would be a completely different experience, but from the audiobook side: it works. Because of this, I didn’t notice the prose as much, instead focusing more on the story itself. The audio recording I listened to had one of the best readers I’ve experienced, who both knew how to emote expression in the dialogue, as well as do clever voice cues so you could tell characters apart. I listened to the audiobook, because I wasn’t able to find a paper copy anywhere. One main comment though before going into full-on “review mode:” I didn’t actually read this book. This is one of the funnest, cleverest, and downright most reckless books I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. After a debut that worked in concept but not on paper, a second novel that improved on the formula but didn’t quite nail it, Grave Peril is what we’ve been waiting for. Those looking to start the series can’t do any better than Grave Peril.Īt long last, we finally see Jim Butcher at his best. Combining white-hot action with clever magic and genuinely interesting characters, Grave Peril is the best book thus far in the Dresden Files. In Grave Peril, Jim’s realization of both the world and Harry Dresden’s character comes to life with incredible finesse.
