Wowzas

+ Backup if you are not a collector or completist...

First of all, this book is amazing. Thomas is an excellent character and just as likable as Harry. His internal struggle with the Hunger of the White Court is vividly expressed in this short work, as is his love for his younger half-brother. If you're a fan of the Dresden Files, this is a MUST ...

Robb's "Ritual in Death" where Eve is with Roarke at a wealthy friend's party in a penthouse at Roarke's Palace hotel when in walks a naked man holding a ...
