Subject: Anybody Here Read the Dresden Files?

I've been getting into the Dresden files books by Jim Butcher. Really good reads with some snappy dialogue and a fun setting.

Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden, the protagonist, is a profesional Wizard who works as a private investgator in Chicago. He is actually listed under "Wizard" in the yellow pages, and is perpetually almost-broke. The setting bears some definite similarity to the Buffy/Angel setting, as supernatural beings exist unbeknownst to the general populace. Most people think Harry is a fraud, though some friends and enemies know that he's the real deal. Ok, a few friends and all his enemies know that he is the real deal.

I understand that James Marsters did the narration for the audio books, at least for the first two. I haven't listened to those so I can't say how good a job he did.
