Member recommendations:FFortuna recommends Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy, "These books are geared toward kids/teens and adults respectively, but they deal with similar material in a very similar tone and both are excellent." plutoempress recommends Something from the Nightside by Simon R. Green, "similar style, though i (and this is my opinion) find john taylor funnier than harry dresden." Jenson_AKA_DL recommends Wicked Gentlemen by Ginn Hale, "The main character's profession, sarcasm and trouble attracting personality reminded me a lot of Harry. If you don't have issues with same-sex relationships (see more) I think this urban fantasy would appeal to those who like the Harry Dresden books." amberwitch recommends Something from the Nightside by Simon R. Green, "A tough P.I. with a number of convenient talents making a living and trying to uncover the secrets of his own origin in the magical Nightside of London." amberwitch recommends The Devil You Know by Mike Carey, "Same noir feel, more interesting first person narrator. Lovely London descriptions." ( see more recommendations and anti-recommendations for this book )

No Love Potions, Endless Purses, Parties, or Other Entertainment. Harry Dresden is the best at what he does. Well, technically, he's the only at what he does. So when the Chicago P.D. has a case that transcends mortal creativity or capability, they come to him for answers. For the "everyday" world is actually full of strange and magical things--and most of them don't play too well with humans. That's where Harry comes in. Takes a wizard to catch a--well, whatever. There's just one problem. Business, to put it mildly, stinks. So when the police bring him in to consult on a grisly double murder committed with black magic, Harry's seeing dollar signs. But where there's magic, there's a black mage behind it. And now that mage knows Harry's name. And that's when things start to get... interesting. Magic. It can get a guy killed.
