yes!

Dresden 6 was about vampires, which vampire in that series has a name that starts with T and was always in Dresden's corner in the other books?

hrmm hint: It's a white Court.

After a dozen books what happens when is a complete blur. He has lots of whats who are what.

Also, you suck at disguising spoilers. Just put 'spoilers' then say what you mean, kthx.

lol I'm too lazy to edit my title

fine! MAN PICKY PICKY!

Thomas the white court vamp is Dresden's half brother. Did not see that, though I mean I saw him being a good guy and important cause he kept showing up and always being in Dresden's corner no matter what was happening.

I'm not a real big fan of Thomas. I suppose the character gives Dresden an effective side kick that enhances some of the books but the actual character bugs me.

There is paradigm shifts in a later book that I won't talk about which makes me even more annoyed with him. Really, I prefer Lara to Thomas, of course, that is probably only natural.

I just watched an interview with Butcher he gave sometime in April I think. In it he mentions that he originally intended the series to go to 20 books with a "big apocalyptic trilogy at the end." He then says he's running long and the events of book 12 were slated to actually be book 10 so he's now predicting 21 or 22 in the series with the trilogy at the end.

I'm loving the series so far, but I don't know if I have the stamina for 9 more books and a trilogy. lol

First video in the interview series (long interview)

The video where he mentions the series intended length.

I finished book 7 the next day.

T-rex Zombie named Sue ftw.

lol.

Problem I had with Book 7, It talks about ghosts as if they WERE the souls of people. Which contradicts the earlier books where ghosts were actually merely impressions in the nevernever.

I loved the series, but will never read another book in it due to the craptacular "ending" of the latest one.

Screw you Butcher. Seriously. I fricken hate you almost as much as that dead guy who spent 7 books talking about hair styles in order to sell more books, then died before he finished the god damn story...which almost no one gives a damn about anymore after slopping thru endless books about god damn hair styles.

DIACF.

Thanks.
