Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?

I spend a great deal of time at the local Barnes and Nobles and I found out about Harry a few years ago. I am glad they made it into a TV series, it should help with popularizing the series further.

whitetrash:

Hi, I'm 62 and have been an SF fan since 1956 when I discovered Heinlein in the school library.  Haven't been a big fantasy fan.  Saw ads for The Dresden Files and fell in love with it more each episode.  It was only 12 days ago that I discovered it was from books.  I've read them all now and love it all even more.  Terrific job, JB!

I don't know if I count really...  I mean I absolutely first heard about it on the Gateworld interview with Mitch Pileggi (he was reading the books at the time of the interview and thought they were great).  The whole idea of a open wizard PI in present time intrested me a lot.  But with RL constantly demanding immediate attention I forgot about it until I saw the early commercials for DF on Sci Fi.  So I had nothing pressing and wanted something to read, I went online and held the first 3 books (well, minus SF as it seemed to be missing).  I absolutely devored them, and read all but SF, PG, and DB before watching the series began.  So you can say that I knew about the books but it wasn't until the series that pushed me to reading them...

I don't think I would've heard of them without the TV series. Sometime in December I watched a really good miniseries on Sci-Fi called "The Lost Room" and I saw a commercial for the Dresden Files and was rather intrigued, so I started recording it and got into it, then I realize it was a book series and decided to read it.

I would like to think that since I'm a somewhat avid reader that I would've eventually heard of it when White Night came out, but the publicity behind that is due partially to the TV series. (Yeah, these books were all on display when I went to buy them. It made it really easy for me to find.)
