100% brilliant. I mean, you should
trust me: go right now and grab this book.
Still here? Ok, time to argue...
Storm Front is the first of “The
Dresden Files” series, adventures of a wizard detective. Jim
Butcher makes a perfect combination between fantasy and crime. The
main history is greatly developed, with an awesome estructure. Each
chapter brings new events that won't let you stop reading.
For those who are not into fantasy
literature, here are the great news: Harry Dresden ain't a Superhero
with extreme powers. Butcher describes this magic as an extension of
physics, making the book credible.
Another fact that makes this book so
awesome is Butcher's intelligence. Scenes are described smartly and
convering all posibilites, leaving no holes.
However, the best point is Dresden's
personality. He is full of inner conflicts, sometimes overcomed by
he's fears. Moreover, far from being a succesful man, he is despised,
treated like a betrayer but he still makes what he believes in,
resolving his problems like a human being and dealing with his
mistakes. This characteristics makes him “real” and full of
empathy.
In fact, Dresden is an old-style
gentleman and shy with women, always getting into interesting
troubles.
Want more?
Storm Front has a lot of hilarious
moments, acid and ironic. Butcher pays a lot of atencion to details,
but only the clue details, tracing an elegant history with changes
and surprises.
It is also available in Audiobook and
graphic novel, funny to see when you finish the book.
