Description: Jim Butcher, The Dresden files: Storm front, Fool moon, Grave peril, Summer Knight, Death masks, Blood rites, Dead beat, Proven guilty, White night, Small favour, Turn coat, Changes, Ghost story, Cold days, Skin game, Peace talks, Battle grounds- books 1-17 in the series, plus two short story collections: Brief cases (signed) and Small jobs. First nine books are in four Book club omnibuses, ten others are single volumes, 1st trade editions, all but Cold days 1st printings. This is so-called Urban fantasy. The next is personal, an opinion only. I am/was always SF, not fantasy, reader. With SF you have an idea (a scientific one preferably), a plot and an end. With fantasy there is scantily underlying idea, free for all flow, no strict plot and often no end, books just quietly slow down and than start over in the next sequel, as a rule less readable. But every rule must have an exception and this is IT. Can't put my finger on what's unusual in Harry Dresden adventures (plots are still fantasy, watery), nice characters, mystery (Harry certainly is no Sherlock Holmes), Chicago (my home town) background, but I found all the books in the series and read them all. For reference (it is personal again, mind you) I lasted 2 out of 3 Lord of the rings books, only 1st Dune out of 6 originals and uncountable (and indistinguishable) sequels. The only other similar adventure (mystery+fantasy+humour) for me was Glen Cook's Garret. Condition: all books very good+ to fine, several not read at all. Uncommon as a set and getting harder to assemble in trade edition since several titles are sold to Book club already. Hope you'll like them the same I do. P.S. Priced to sell- the last cimilar set, although without the signature, recently sold on Ebay at $450.
