Well, it's finally moving past Dresden's trauma. I'm reminded why I like this series now.

Very slow paced so far, but the trauma from the last book is pretty extensive. Kind of meandering, but perhaps understandably so. Dresden's misery does make it a little hard to follow, since his observations are a little one-note.

It's been a long time since the last book. I wasn't sure Butcher would keep writing this series, or just add more fractional short stories. He's been ready to move on from Dresden for a long time. Looks like he has a book after this one planned, too, though, so maybe he's ready to push to an ending for this character.
