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

Its been canceled, and it was crap.
Personal opinion, I know. I was just never able to reconcile my self to the changes made to get it on the small screen.
I mean, why change Bob? Bob ROCKS in the books.

I am a Newb to the books although I have read almost all of them. I watched the show and enjoyed it, thought it was a wonderful concept. I had no idea it was a book series until one day I am waiting in a an airport in Raleigh NC and looking for something to read. As I perused over many a book of forgotten lore I came across the Dresden files storm front. I could not get enough. My only wish is I could have found the books in order and read them that way! My favorite so far has been Dead Beat. Jim really has made a fantastic series come to life with great characters. My Favorites are (besides Harry) have got to be Toot Toot and the Mouse. I have to say though the show did not do the books justice. There was so much they could of done correctly and decided to screw it up. I will be glad when Jim gets the rights back and can possibly do some movies. It is time the harry potter kids found out what true wizardry is like!

Actually, I was turned on to the books by a friend and now have books 1-10 on my Nook. (I'm holding off on the next two until I get some work done :| ) My husband and I watched the TV series via Netflix streaming. I have to admit, I was disappointed in the series. I thought they could have done a lot better with it (although Terrence Mann as Bob wass great). The best episode, IMHO, was Storm Front, it really showed off more of what Harry could do with magic.

Actually, I did, but that as before I even knew there was a book series. I only watched a couple of episodes of the show, however I did find it quite entertaining, especially the Hockey Stick staff.

My sister in law recommended the books to me, but I didn't get around to reading them until the first previews for the show came out.
