The Dresden Files > DF Books
Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?

My sister sent the books to my son thinking he would enjoy them and he did. He actually spent time indoors reading these books instead of his usual fishing, swimming, etc. He also was laughing so hard at one part (I can't remember which one now) that he stopped reading to have me read it. Once he was done, I started reading and immediately loved it. I have only seen one part of one episode on SF and was not really impressed. TV Harry looked so different and clean cut that it just didn't seem right. Plus Murphy had dark hair and Michael??? No way. I just couldn't see it. So, while I would probably watch the episodes if I could ever find them on, the books are by far my favorite. Not surprising there, most books that get made into movies or tv shows disappoint me greatly and I just end up getting mad at the people who didn't take the time to get it right. Can you say Eragon the movie?? >:(

I guess it's splitting hairs but I didn't find him in the ways on the poll...
I'd seen his books, but hadn't read them
then I saw the preview and was really excited!
But what really led me to read them was the forum on scifi.com
I mod a few of the forums over there and ran across a new forum for The Dresden Files.
I feel in love then!
The posters there told me about the books so I read them all before the show even premiered
Fell desperately in LOVE with Harry from the first chapter!
took me a year to actually come over here and start posting
But I seriously NEED someone who has read the books to talk to!
I got my sister hooked on them too, but she hasn't read the last 2 yet

I admit, I was turned onto the Dresden Files books by the show. I went out and bought them all. Jim Butchers like the only author I have ever done that with. Love his work. All the Codex Alera's are wicked sweet as well.

I've never actually seen the show lol
i saw Proven Guilty on a shelf in Wal-Mart and thought it looked interesting...i didn't realize at the time it was the 8th book, and when i did i just had to read the rest of them.
