DF Reference Collection / Re: Dresden Files: Series Timeline
« on: April 20, 2009, 01:53:21 PM »
Something that might be worth adding to the timeline, but its a little different from the rest since its rather speculative. 
Jim has said that he intends to do 20 Dresden books followed by an apocalypse trilogy.  Well so far the books pace at between 1/2 and 1 1/2 years between books.  If they stay on pace that puts the Apocalypse going down at in about 5-14 years or 15-24 ASF with the average being at around 19 ASF.  its a pretty wide gap, I know, but its something we can be fairly sure is going to come around. 

Not sure its something that fits the timeline, but every time i get somebody new hooked on these books they always ask me if anyone knows how long its going to last ans such, so the whole 20 books + apocalypse trology  tends to come up a bunch

 Does that include short stories?  Because, if it doesn't , he is only half way though.. At the pace of one book a year or one and half years, that is another ten years, don't know if I will live that long..

"Turn Coat," eleventh book in The Dresden Files, is released April 7, 2009.

 Do we have any spoilers yet?  Or at least some book cover art to talk about?  Hi, guys been a while since I posted, I know.. But I still love Harry..

This is, of course, par for the course regarding Sci-Fi's mind-numbing skill in defecating on its own dinner plate.

If something works, it has (if they're lucky) one half-season in which to be judged as worth keeping...sometimes, they have a show that inspires loyalty of a size not seen since Trek (Farscape/Stargate SG-1, anyone?), and they STILL cancel it!!!

Why?  Because several sources have said that Sci-Fi's CEO positively HATES science-fiction; the decision to put wrestling on the Sci-Fi Channel was ranking right up there with offering Roseanne Barr a singing gig!  Wrestling and Sci-Fi go together like a peanut-butter and battery-acid sandwich; truly, the demented vision of someone who hasn't the intellect of a lobotomized coconut!

  I had heard that too, may I ask what in the hell is a CEO who hates science fiction doing running a scifi channe?  Or was it part of some packaged deal?

   Loved the series, wouldn't rest till I got all the books and have been reading them non stop.. Just finished White Nights and now have started over again with Storm Front.. There are lots of pieces to the puzzle and I do not want to miss them.
