The Dresden Files > DF Books
So how is BG?
sayyadina:
On one hand it is possible that some of the things that seemed off have plausible in universe explanations. Except it really didn’t feel like a proper Dresden Files book. Jim has had a very distinctive style and Harry’s voice is likewise very unique through Skin Game. That all went out the window totally except for a handful of pages where it actually sounded like Harry.
Maybe it’s editing. Maybe the betas failed. Maybe it was all the time off and Jim forgot how to write Harry. Maybe Jim’s ex wife Shannon was more of a positive influence than we knew. Regardless there really was way too much about this book that IMHO broke the series. Which makes me sad since I loved this series. I guess all good things come to an end, some before their time.

Please tell me, without spoilers, how is this book? How does it compare to PT, and to other books in the series? Did it answer questions raised in PT? Thanks!

The biggest question out of Peace Talks is answered in Battle Ground. So if you don't read Battle Ground you'll kick yourself. But understand there is really only one good book between the two. So these two books will make you work hard as a reader.
