The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Any news on Peace Talks
Dina:
I agree with most of it, but I disagree about first books. I think The Sorcerer's Stone is almost perfect and I think the writing is better than SF. That said, I completely agree about Butcher learning faster and I think he is now a much, much better autor than JKR.
noblehunter:
To be fair, DF and HP are trying to do different kinds of story telling. The whimsy and inconsistency is more of a feature than a bug for those sorts of stories.
Though Butcher has done a better job at keeping the story corralled rather than sprawling all over the place like a lot of other long running series, including HP.
morriswalters:
Rowling ended it in seven books, and she captured a generation or two, internationally. By any definition that includes the readers, she wrote better books. Butcher might have served himself better by not trying to make a life's work of it. You get tired of anybody or thing that consumes as much of your life as the Dresden Files. Rowling hit it and moved on. Now she can work for pride and fun.
RobReece:
More popular does not necessarily mean better.
