I don't understand the love that the Dresden Files gets. Great idea with terrible execution. Butcher's writing is just clumsy with bad dialogue and weak world building. The series was originally recommended to me because I was lamenting that Gibson had moved away from noir after Neuromancer and a friend thought Butcher would fit the bill.

I genuinely despise the dialogue for at least the first six books in the Dresden files. If my friend didn't convince me to keep going, I would have given up. However, around book 10-12 is when I saw the magic.

That's a huge time investment for something you may not eventually like, but it paid off for me fwiw.
