You…used black magic. To grow hair.
I need to get my hands on more of these short collections of Dresden stories. They're readily available, but since it has to be audiobook versions, it does tend to slow me down.
There are three short stories here, and, as you may have guessed, they center around Bigfoot (or the fantasy version of him). More accurately, they center around his kid. It's kind of fun seeing Irwin grow up as Harry runs into him in between the other books.
The advantage these stories have over the full sized Dresden novels is that Harry is actually competent in these. Okay, that's not fair. Harry solves the problems without someone running him over with a truck or slamming him off a roof top, after which his back is kind of hurting but it's nothing a good Coke won't cure.
Seriously, Harry getting the crap beaten out of him but bouncing back quickly gets really tiresome some times.
So fun. Now on the hunt for more.

Fun, fast read. Dry humor and good life lessons. We could all learn from a Bigfoot.
