The Dresden Files > DF Books
Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?
Griffyn612:
I didn't watch the show, but saw the advertisements. It was already cancelled by the time I noticed the books in the book store. And one day when I ran out of other things to read, I picked up the first book, finished it, went back got the second, and so on and so on.

I had never heard of the books before my senior year in English. I had just finished a mediochre book in the middle of 'Silent Reading Time' and was hungry for something better. I picked up the second book (dang you Mr. Butcher for not numbering the OUTSIDE of the books!) and was completely confused, but entertained. Had to buy the rest of the series.

My wife recommended the show to me after she randomly came across it while surfing. I enjoyed the show, and my customary Googling of everything interesting to me revealed that it was also a book series. I bought SF through DM, devoured them, then went back and got the rest. SmF came out in paperback right when I caught up to it. In the meantime, my wife, my brother-in-law, my brother, and some of his friends have all been hooked. I'm on my third re-read of the series waiting for GS now, and I've been lurking on these forums since sometime in 2009.
Cody:
None of the options above apply to me. I picked up the books years ago and watched the TV show for maybe 3 episodes before it ticked me off too much and I had to stop. They changed way too much and I don't mind some things being changed but too much means its not part of the books anymore - its brand new.
::) I still love the books though despite the TV show and can't wait for Ghost Story.
CrabbyRat:
Watched a few eps of the TV show, had my geek friends who read the books and named their cats "Harry" and "Murphy" tell me about them for years. I had to get my Kindle before I read them - book print is too small for bad eyes.
