Holy carp! My mind is utterly blown. Like, bits of grey matter are dripping down the wall behind me.

Also, I had a few points where author-inserted-rants knocked me a little way out of the text. One I was sympathetic to, though I don't remember which (I have to reread it), and one (the one about women vs. men on conversation-holding) that made me go :| and was... well, irritating. Usually I don't mind Dresden breaking the fourth wall, but that one just felt condescending.
Other than that, pretty much loved it. -

I want it so so so much..... At least my friend has it. But he's already gone and lent it to two people, so it should be available by the end of the week. -

like I said, it blew my mind. I didn't realize it was even out till my dad stumbled across it at Powels. last I had heard Butcher wasn't due to start wrighting it till this month. Oh, by the way, my posts might be a little weird for a while, my laptop died, so I'm wrighting this on my Wii.
