Picturing that scene really was one of those "wat." moments.

This was the first one of the series I read, loaned to me by a friend. It remains my very favorite, and even though it spoiled several surprises in the earlier books in the series, I consider it the standard against which all Dresdens are judged.
"That must have been hard," said Ramirez.
"Not really," I said. He looked at me skeptically. "Lifting an engine block is very simple, it's just a lot of work."
This line literally changed my outlook on life.

How strange..I also happen to be re-listening to The Dresden files and I'm just about to finish "Dead Beat". So addictive and my "Marsters Man Crush" is getting a little out of control. Cheers.."Kvothe will never die!"
"I rode the dinosaur into the stream of zombies" is my most absolute favorite sentence in all of literature.
That you like Desden Files as much as you do, is one of the reasons i always check out your recomendations.
Just so you know and in a totally differnt subject, your books are now available in Uruguay (that's where i'm form).

My favorite Dresden Files book by far! One of the many awesome series I discovered through you, thanks Pat :D
I also discovered this series via Pat's recommendation. And I laughed & LAAAUGHED in the battle royale at the end of this novel. Literally laughed myself into a coughing fit. T. Sue for-evah!
this series keeps getting better w/ each book - could not be happier in here w/ Harry, Thomas, and the rest... Bob..
So I'm listening to the audiobooks. First of all; Marsters IS Dresden and you can fight me. Listening to him read this line specifically was awesome - he does a great job giving each character a personality through his reading.
