Meet Harry Dresden, Chicago's first (and only) Wizard PI. Turns out the ‘everyday’ world is full of strange and magical things - and most of them don't play well with humans. That's where Harry comes in.

A bargain made with the Queen of Air and Darkness has forced Harry into a new job: professional killer.  His first task is to bring death to an immortal.  As if that wasn't hard enough, Harry learns of a danger to Demonreach, the living island hidden upon Lake Michigan.  A danger that could destroy billions and land him in the deepest trouble he has ever known.

Harry has only twenty-four hours to gather the allies he has left and prevent a cataclysm - all while the power he bargained to get, but never meant to keep, lays seige to his very soul.

MAGIC - IT CAN GET A GUY KILLED.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
