The Dresden Files > DF Books

Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?

<< < (101/140) > >>

Target, shoot me:
I heard of the show, got interested and started reading the books. The first Dresden I read was Proven Guilty. I was lucky in that you can jump into the Dresdenverse a few books in, and didn't really have any trouble keeping up with the story, getting to know the characters was breeze as well, Jim's just awesome like that. I read them all in order after falling in love with the snark.  :)

Razil:
I first read Storm Front about six months before the show airred. I only found out about the show because of Eureka. And I continue to love the books despite how awful the show was. Horribly adapted, horribly miscast.

Mr. Ghostbuster:
I've never seen the show. A friend recommended the series to me a couple years ago. At the time I was working at a place that was ridiculously over-staffed, so after getting hooked I was able to read the next five or six books in a week, all from a quiet corner in the back storage room.

i discovered jim based on the show but i've tried to make up for it by reading from SF to WN (which was the most recent at the time) in marathon fashion.  Got through them all before Small Favor even came out.  Then I hooked two of my friends on the books like three-eye.

HistoryDave:
A friend of mine recomended the series to me before the TV series aired.  I watched a few episodes and enjoyed them but still did not crack open abook.  My Wife even bought me White Knight back in '08 but it sat on my shelf for three years.  I read the Codex Alera lat year and loved it.  I found the inclination to read "Ghost Story" two months ago, then overspent my book budget buying the rest of the series and devouring it over a two week period.  I am impatient for "Ghost Story" to be published, but as a Robert Jordan fan I am much pleased at how prolific Jim Butcher is as a writer.  My wife and friends know me better than I know myself.
