Storm Front by Jim Butcher

Jim Butcher's Storm Front is the first book in the popular Dresden Files series. Readers are introduced to Harry Dresden, an extremely powerful wizard who is very rarely taken seriously by everyday oridinary folks.

Chicago wizard Harry Dresden is asked to consult on a double murder case involving the darkest form of black magic. But Harry has much more than this case on his plate when a housewife requests his help to find her missing husband and the White Council is watching his every move looking for an excuse to execute him. On top of all this Harry gets on the wrong side of a powerful vampire and a mafioso tied into the double murder case. Will Harry be able to solve the case, and most importantly will he make it out alive?

Storm Front is a phenomenal novel. Combining humor, horror, fantasy, and magic this book really gives readers the most bang for their buck. Jim Butcher's well written tale has something for everyone. The characters, plot, setting, and narration are impeccable and keep the reader wanting more.
