White Night by Jim Butcher

If I had to pick a favorite Dresden novel, I think White Night would probably be it. What I love most about this series is that it genuinely gets better with every novel. I loved this book even more the second time around.

In this book Dresden must stop a plot to undermine the White Council, and prove that his half-brother is not sneaking around killing young magic practitioners. I think what makes it one of my favorite novels in the series is that I really love Thomas, and he plays more significant role in this novel.

I also really like White Night because this novel is where the pieces really start falling into place. There is a large overall arc to the series and this novel is the first one that really starts dealing with that. All the events in the previous novels are just along the border of the larger mythology, but this novel was more direct.

And overall, I just really love Harry Dresden.
