Blood Rites by Jim Butcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
It was about here in the first reading of this series that I realized that the potential reveals could theoretically outweigh the great plots, humor, and stakes.
No spoilers, but Harry has family. He has no worse weaknesses than family. It's really pretty great.
Of course, the humor is no slouch. Between the banter between Harry and Murphy and the emotional aid he provided with her in-laws, the whole porn industry plot, and Bob, I was chuckling an awful lot.
The series is super strong. There's a reason why it became so big and even a mainstay for the whole UF industry. It's well-rounded and wonderfully snarky and it has meat in a lot of places where you wouldn't expect an UF to have meat.
I can't wait to pick up the next, again. :)
