It's a Harry Dresden novel. I feel like it was a return to the format I enjoyed in the earlier books– Harry is a detective and vaguely smart but in over his head, and there's a caper. It had the political complexity of the more recent books combined with the detective mystery and sardonic humor of the early books, which combined to make it one of the more enjoyable Dresden books in a while. I fully expect the humor to drop back out of the series again at any moment, but I'll take the reprieve.
