When I found out that James Marsters read for the audiobook versions of the Dresden Files I decided to give fiction audiobooks another try.

Marsters has a great voice, no doubt about it and I can fully believe him as the Harry Dresden character. I was able to get through the whole book, although it took me weeks listening here and there. I would drift off a time or two and have to rewind a bit, but it wasn't as bad as my previous attempts at fiction audiobooks.

The story itself was okay. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. It reminds me a lot of early Anita Blake. I do like that Dresden isn't a tough guy. Except for his magical abilities he's a pretty average guy. His courage comes from his goodness. But the pace and the subject matter is very similar to Anita Blake and there are many times when the decisions Dresden makes make no sense to me. I think I would have enjoyed this more had a read it instead of listened to it so I will continue on with the series, but do the reading myself!
