Yesterday I finished reading “Grave Peril” by Jim Butcher. For the entire book series so far I’ve expressed one central yearning, and that was for one of the characters, Karrin Murphy to die a slow and agonizing death. Everyone who I know who is further ahead in the series promises me that things will get better, and now that I’m reading Thea next book, Summer Knight my response to them is “We Shall See” 😉

The story so far is very formulaic and about 65% organized like a Stephen King story, with a beeping truckload of detail and action way at the end. Scott has promised me that stating with book 4, Butcher gets something he didn’t have before, and that is a Tor editor. I’m only in the first few pages, but it does look promising. I’m hoping that the subsequent books are quicker reads than the first three, but only time will tell.
