Summer Knight: Book Review

Title: Summer Knight (Book 4/11 in the Dresden Files series)
Author: Jim Butcher
Number of Pages: 371
Genre: Mystery/Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Book Number/Goal: 34/50 in 2009

Review: I was slightly disappointed with this one.

Grave Peril was so fantastic that I had really high hopes for Summer Knight. While I still enjoyed the book, and actually consider it to be a good book, I was hoping for more. More resolution perhaps? I felt like this book was merely a bridge to get to the next book (which I'm currently reading). I'm glad I'm behind on the series and that I was able to pick up Death Masks to read right away.

I did enjoy the look we got into the politics of the White Council. I think it brought more humanity to them to see exactly who they are and where they come from.

I was THRILLED that he finally clued Murphy in to what has been happening/the workings of the Council. I hope we see a lot more of these two working together in the upcoming books.
