Oh Wow!

My dear friend, Everett Hitch (okay, that is not her name, but we often pretend we are Virgil and Everett and she has taken great care over the years to render herself unable to find on the internet, with great success) recommended The Dresden Files  by Jim Butcher to me.  Storm Front is the first. 
Because we both love Robert B. Parker, Stuart Woods and Dean Kootz's Odd Thomas, I was very thankful for the recommendation.  There aren't any Stone-ish qualities to Harry, but there are qualities off all of the rest, especially Odd.  And wow, wow, wow, I am so excited to have a new series!  This is great!
