Cold Days by Jim Butcher
Cold Days by Jim Butcher Book Summary
After a brief interlude in the afterlife, Harry Dresden’s new job makes him wonder if death was really all that bad in this novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.
Harry Dresden is no longer Chicago’s only professional wizard. Now, he’s Winter Knight to Mab, the Queen of Air and Darkness. Her word is his command. And her first command is the seemingly impossible: kill an immortal. Worse still, there is a growing threat to an unfathomable source of magic that could mean the deaths of millions.
Beset by enemies new and old, Harry must gather his friends and allies, prevent an apocalypse, and find a way out of his eternal subservience before his newfound infinite powers claim the only thing he has left to call his own...
His soul.

How can this have a rating before it's released???. Look, I'm as eager as anyone for this to be released. However, rating the book before then is not only stupid, it's misleading. Apple really needs to overhaul this system and limit reviews and ratings to people who have, you know, ACTUALLY PURCHASED AND READ THE DARNED BOOK! In some kind of quixotic effort at limiting the damage, I'm going to give this book a 5 star rating, just to offset at least one premature and low rating.
Excellent addition to the series. This was an excellent addition to the series and really sets things up for more books. Can't wait till the next one.
Fantastic!!!. This is a master stroke in story development and the evolution of Harry Dresden. Harry is my hero! This is compelling and never let's you go. It's another one I'll enjoy rereading!
All the Dresden Series. I fell in love with Jim Butchers writing immediately, followed closely by a love for Harry Dresden of course! Considering my extensive library of classics through King & Koontz and I'd set every one of them aside to read one of the Dresden Files books or any Jim Butcher book! Can't wait till the rest of the world catches onto what a gem this author is! Love 'em!
Publish It Already. Love it!!
Can't freaking wait. Been in love with this series since it came out. I am absolutely coming apart at the seams waiting for this book. Pre-ordered and November cannot get here fast enough.
Can't wait. 20 more days and counting. This is by far my favorite series.
Yes. He's back! :) and of coarse he's going to war
Cold Days. Great read! Only problem it ended and now I have to wait for next book in the series or try to rent space in Jim Butchers head. This series gets better with every book and this one tied up a great many questions.
Cold days. The character progression and world building never cease to amaze me. What will he think of next?
about time. it took jim butcher a long time to get this book out but hey it was a really great book. and an adventure that really raps things up to where there is room for another book or more.
Audiobook version???????. Where is the Audiobook version? Why is it not available the same time?
Amazing storytelling!!. Unpredictable, engaging, and surprising. You generally don't know what's going to happen next, with surprise turns at every corner. After 13 books, you are really invested in these characters, and you begin to feel when something happens to them. Amazing storytelling, I think he's in a class of his own, no one comes close, even JK Rowling
Par for the (excellent) Course. Harry Dresden - wizard for hire, ghost, and now Winter Knight back from the (almost) dead. Cold Days is a superb entry, continuing the Dresden Files tradition of having a gripping narrative that never shies away from lasting consequences - both good and bad - with a climax not quite what you may have expected. I look forward to reading the next volume of this series, and this volume has only reinforced my support of the series to would-be readers.
Best series I've read!!. The Dresden books just keep getting better. Cold days lives up to the rest of the series. And is now one of my favorites. Only bad part is the wait for the next!
Yes. Love it
Welcome back, Dresden!. It's been far too long since we had a book from Jim Butcher. And Harry Dresden is not the type of character you can just leave lying around. Harry comes out of the gate in this book in full fine form, and hits the ground running. The previous book was a bit weak in places, but this one shores up all those weaknesses and gives you a really good story to chew on, with all your favorite characters.
Love Dresden!. Another great addition to the Dresden Series. I always get funny looks when I laugh out loud while reading, and this book had multiples! Now to have Jim write faster, because I already have Dresden withdrawals...
Wow. Ended to soon... The next one can not come fast enough!
Meh.... Seems to me that someone else is writing these books and jim is signing his name to them. There was very little witty batter and the entire book, Harry was down and out. You could read the first few chapters and then skip to the last few and not miss anything in between. It was tough to get through Cold Days and this was even tougher. Where's the good story telling and suspense from Death Masks? The only thing keeping this book from getting 1 star was that he did reveal who's behind all the insanity enveloping the world.
Fantastic.. Like all the others, building and building to a great and epic climax for the next one. Seriously, a fantastic read IMO.
Wow. I literally could not put this book down. Idiot that I am, I downloaded it in the middle of a class, and I couldn't even put it away long enough to get back to my apartment, so I read and walked and didn't stop reading till the fat lady sang. Jim butcher continues to excel as an author. From the first Dresden book and the earlier parts of the Furies books, he has changed and shaped his writing abilities much as his characters have grown through the series, to the point where the man we're reading now is recognizable mostly in his wise cracks at considerably inappropriate moments. This book is a testament to his growing skills and has set the bar exceedingly hi for future endeavors. As for the book itself, WOW!! The reintroduction of characters, the way their growth has been displayed and the way he considerably screwed things up have created a fantastic landscape of a book. He's given himself a gigantic amount of room to play with in how he wants to take e series and I look forward to whatever he plans to do next. I almost hate myself now for having finished it in one go, wishing instead I would've given myself the time to enjoy it more thoroughly. I guess I'll just have to read it again, and wait impatiently for the next one to come out.
He just keeps getting better. I've been a fan of Jim's books since I first was given Fool Moon 12 years ago. It has been fun to watch him develop as a writer over the years. He seems to delve deeper into multiple layers of mythology to introduce new characters to help propel these stories and that is fun, for me at least, to read. I won't go into any plot details, but suffice it to say this is another great Dresden novel. It contains all of the twist and turns we've come to know and love from Mr. Butcher. As I finished the book, I felt a twinge in my heart because I know that Harry Dresden's end game it coming soon. Sure, that's about 9 books from now, but I will miss these characters once this series if over.
Already reading it a second time. My wife & I both read Cold Days already, and she is on her second time through the book. As soon as I finish re-reading some of the previous books on a clue-hunting trip, I plan to re-read it as well. Top notch.
He does it again!. Just when you think these series has gotten as good as it can Jim butcher brings back the magic!
Yes. All of my yes.
Cold Days. Great story as usual, and perfect way to bring Harry back to life!
A great read!. A fan of Urban-Fantasy or someone that likes a new twist on older folklore won't regret buying any book in this series. Humor is just another reason to keep reading.
At least read the book before reviewing it. . .. Champ&Gerdhr apparently "read" this book and said (in Oct. 2012) it was "more of the same" and gave it one star. Fantastic display of prescience, Champ--as of 11/3/12 it hasn't been released. Although you may have a great future as a palm reader, why don't you stay out of the reviews of books from the future!
Best Series Ever!!!. I'm going crazy waiting for Cold Days to come!!! The best series I have ever read!!!
Cold Days. Awesome!
Harry's evolution. Each book changes Harry a little. I still like him at the end and want to see what happens next....that is the secret to writing a good book. This is a good story with many layers of plot. I may have to read it again to see the pieces of story that I missed.
Droner. Tried reading this one but it was so boring I couldn't finish it. On and on about what is magic and Harry's principals. Same old stuff only more so.
Epic!. I love every book Jim Butcher has come out with! One of my favorite authors for sure. His character development is one of a kind. Once I pick up one of his books, I can't put it down!
Turning the World Upside Down. Jim Butcher is still wrecking havoc to the Dresden-verse.
Wow. Thank you Mr. Butcher. What a great read. Can't wait to read it a second time!
Soon. The winter knight is coming.
Loved it. I just finished reading it and already I consider it to be the most exciting book on the series. Everything is on a bigger scale and Jim Butcher connects the dots with previous plot points in the series. This is a must read for any Jim Butcher fan and if you haven't started to read this series, you need too. My only problem is now I have to wait a year for the next one to come out!
Cold Days. If you are a Dresden fan this book will not disappoint. I am amazed that this series gets more interesting with every turn and enjoyed my escape into the world of wizard/warden/knight Harry Dresden. Good read.
By far my favorite series in the world. Slower than the other books in the series but still good just not as good as the others
Cold days. Awesome as always, thanks Jim!
Cold Days/Jim Butcher. Excellent story! I have never been disappointed by any of the Dresden Files. The characters are fierce, funny, intelligent, frightening & completely lovable or worthy of your wrath. There are so many twists and turns. You never know what direction you're heading next, you just know it's going to be one hell of a ride! I'll be anxiously awaiting the next book. Can't wait to see what everyone is going to get into next!
Cold days. Awesome as always
Awesome!!!. Read this book in one day. Could NOT put it down!! Now I'm upset that I have to wait a whole year for another one. Butcher definitely delivers AGAIN! I am most definitely a HUGE fan of Jim Butcher.
Close to my heart.. There's not many characters that I love as much as Harry. He's the one person I can always relate with. Thank you Mr. Butcher for keeping Harry alive this long.

Another Great Desden Files. Can't wait for the next book. At the very least there's a couple short stories I haven't gotten to yet.

Jim Butcher (born October 26, 1971) is an American author. He has written the contemporary fantasy The Dresden Files, Codex Alera, and Cinder Spires book series. Personal life Butcher was born in Independence, Missouri, in 1971. He is the youngest of three children, having two older sisters. He has one son, James J. Butcher.
