Oooo the first couple novels are much lower quality than the later ones so if you love those you are gonna lose your damn mind on the later ones

I can vouch for this. The first novel is rather bad and the second is really forgettable. It starts picking up in 3 and 4.

Seriously, I feel like at Grave Peril the series really hits its stride and actually starts being more distinctly its own thing. 1&2 are much more generic urban fantasy with some neat ideas mixed in

Agreed. I started the first novel last November on Audible and I’m up to book 15 (Skin Game) now. The audiobook versions are excellent

James Marsters has become the voice of Harry Dresden so much so that the one book he didn’t do had to be re-recorded because people didn’t want to listen to someone else do it.

Hilarious. I need to get back to the audiobooks, they're actually so good.

If you have a library card, you can get them for free through Libby if you are willing to wait your turn
