Title: Captain's Fury, Short Stories, and Holiday Cheer!
Post by: Priscellie on December 20, 2007, 05:01:27 AM
Great news!  Captain's Fury shot to #17 on the New York Times Bestseller list for hardcover fiction.  Congratulations to Jim!  If you haven't read it yet, snag a copy (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0441015271/iagonet) from the Jim-Butcher.com store (http://jim-butcher.com/store/).

Also, we have big news on the short story front!  Jim has announced that he will be participating in Kevin J. Anderson's "Blood Lite" anthology, featuring humorous horror stories.  Jim reveals:

It's called 'Harry's Day Off.'  You know, I thought it would be nice to just have a Dresden Files story where nothing happens.  Harry has a quiet day at home reading a book.  Hey, it could happen. :)

Watch this website for further details, and discuss your thoughts on the story here (http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,5447.0.html).

In other short story news, don't forget to pre-order (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0312375042/iagonet/) My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon, the short story anthology featuring Jim's "Heorot."  It arrives in bookstores December 26th!  It recently received a glowing review and four-star rating from Romantic Times, which you can read in editor P.N. Elrod's Livejournal (http://p-n-elrod.livejournal.com/34552.html#cutid1). 

Remember, the store is also your source for Jim Butcher books, shirts, audio books, posters, and more!  If you're still looking for a holiday gift for similarly-minded friends, family, and enemies you wish to convert to friends, you can't go wrong!  Also, don't forget the Harry vs. Kalshazzak poster (http://www.dabelbrothers.com/index.php?categoryid=35&p164_item=3&p164_action=item) offered by the Dabel Brothers, publishers of the upcoming Dresden Files graphic novel.  Nothing quite says holiday cheer like a naked wizard hurling lightning at a giant toad demon.
