Executive Summary: While this one is a bit slow in parts it sets the stage nicely for what currently stands as the best book in the series ([b:Changes 6585201 Changes (The Dresden Files, #12) Jim Butcher http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1304027244s/6585201.jpg 6778696]).Audio book: James Marsters is terrible in this one. Just Kidding. Still great! Highlights for this are his voice for the big baddie and I think he changed/gave TootToot a distinct voice that is both hilarious and AWESOME.Full Review“I love being a wizard. Every day is like Disneyland.”Murder. Conspiracy. Evil. You know, politics. Just think about how bad the US Congress would be if those lifetime Congressman lived for centuries. Oh and could do magic. Welcome to the White Council.Donald Morgan is being pursued for the murder of a Senior Council member, and he comes to Harry seeking help. What!?Yeah, you read that right. The man who spent the better part of two decades trying to find a reason to kill Harry Dresden for being a Warlock is coming to him for help.The premise of this book is probably one of my favorites. We learn more about the White Council, including getting a look inside their headquarters.We are also introduced to a brand new baddie, called a Skinwalker, and let's just say it's nasty.The book is a bit slow in parts, and Morgan is still not a very likable character. He was getting on my nerves as much as he was Harry.It's also missing many of the best supporting characters that were present in the last book. We do however finally see a return of Billy and the Alphas. I'm trying to remember the last book he showed up in, and it seems like it's been awhile.The end of this is pretty excellent too, with some pretty big implications that sets the stage for [b:Changes 6585201 Changes (The Dresden Files, #12) Jim Butcher http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1304027244s/6585201.jpg 6778696].All and all, another solid entry in the Dresden Universe.
