I think one of the main reasons why the first three books garnered mixed receptions was that despite being three books into the series-that’s roughly 1000 pages-already, it still felt like the series was still in its introductory phase. They have power, and that power is very real. They resound in the heart and mind, they live long after the sounds of them have died away, they echo in the heart and the soul. “Some words have a power that has nothing to do with supernatural forces. Otherwise, there’s a good chance that Fool Moon would’ve put me off from continuing with the series. I know I’ve mentioned this-and I’m repeating myself here-but I’m thankful for the fans of the series who have acknowledged and mentioned to me that the first three books of this series were generally considered the weakest books of the series. Harry Dresden-with Michael-are dealing with a new case in this installment: ghosts and vampires. Grave Peril is the third book in The Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher, and the story takes place a year after what happened at the end of Fool Moon. This book showed the first signs of The Dresden Files getting better in quality. Published: 4 th March 2010 by Orbit (UK) & 1st September 2001 by Roc (US) Series: The Dresden Files (Book #3 of 25)
