About this ebook

“One of the most enjoyable marriages of the fantasy and mystery genres on the shelves,”(Cinescape) the Dresden Files have become synonymous with action-packed urban fantasy and nonstop fun. Fool Moon continues the adventures of Jim Butcher’s most famous—and infamous—reluctant hero…
 
You’d think there’d be a little more action for the only professional wizard listed in the Chicago phone book. But lately, Harry Dresden hasn’t been able to dredge up any kind of work: magical, mundane, or menial.
 
Just when it looks like he can’t afford his next meal, a murder comes along that requires his particular brand of supernatural expertise. There’s a brutally mutilated corpse, and monstrous animal markings at the scene. Not to mention that the killing took place on the night of a full moon. Harry knows exactly where this case is headed. Take three guesses—and the first two don’t count...

Ratings and reviews

...I love the subject matter. Werewolves are a personal favorite, and this book has a lot of them. In fact, it discusses all kinds of were-creatures, and it does it in such a way as to make them seem real. That's what I like best about Jim Butcher's writing...he really brings it into the here and now of possibility.

If you have decided to up this book and read it, then i dare say. get ready for one of the best books ever written.Jim Butcher is one of my all time, all star winning Author's. if your reading fool moon, and you havent read storm front then get it. there is 13 books so far. Read them all I dare you.

This is a good fantasy novel. The world of Harry dresden is a nice twist on the old idea. This particular part of the series was not as good as the first, but the author even says the series doesn't pick up until book 3, which I will definitely be reading.

About the author

A martial arts enthusiast whose résumé includes a long list of skills rendered obsolete at least two hundred years ago, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jim Butcher turned to writing as a career because anything else probably would have driven him insane. He lives mostly inside his own head so that he can write down the conversation of his imaginary friends, but his head can generally be found in Independence, Missouri. Jim is the author of the Dresden Files, the Codex Alera novels, and the Cinder Spires series, which began with The Aeronaut’s Windlass.
