Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?

Darkling:

I didn't know about the books until after the show began.  At first I wasn't that interested in the show.  The commercials didn't reveal much about the content.  They should have made the commercials more magical.  Someone started pressuring me to check it out and then finally my closest friend told me I should watch it. The first two episodes had already aired so I watched it over the computer and I got hooked.

I bought the books the other day.  I have already read Restoeration of faith over the computer, and I have read all of Storm front and Fool Moon.  And now I'm a little bit into Grave Peril.

The Barnes and Noble had a big display of all the books and I picked one up scanned it and put it back cause I already had too many other books. That night I saw and ad ( this was last summer) for the Dresden Files show coming in Jan. I said "ooh, now I gotta get those books". and went out and bought them all the next day and read them in a week. I am currently on my 3rd time of reading them all the way through with my wife right behind me.

 :)Yes, indeed, I started reading the books because of the show, only have one more to go. I am surprised I didn't hear about them before, they are so phenomenal. I really have found a new fandom, and am excited about it. I now wish there were a few more of the characters, and all in the show that are in the books, but it would be expensive to do. I would love to see films or miniseries based on each novel, like the Harry Potters have been. I think Paul Blackthorne makes a great Harry and I only hope the show gets renewed. It sure is better then most prime time garbage these days. So, a resounding YES to the question.

Kalin:
So is Restoration of Faith supposed to be like a prelude or what?

I ordered the first 4 books from B&N after seeing the fist few shows, and talking to fellow fans on the Sci-Fi Forums for The Dresden Files.   I'm uncool, but loving the books, and the show! :D
