Better than I expected. I enjoyed watching Irwin, Bigfoot's scion, grow up. I think the 3rd story was the best of the lot.

A nice collection of three short stories/novellas in the Harry Dresden series. Each was published previously in separate collections but it’s nice to have them all together here in one group because they form a nice connected trio. In each story, a Sasquatch known as River Shoulders hires Harry to protect his son who is half Sasquatch and living his life in normal human society. The son, Irwin, grows through the three stories from grade schooler through high school and on in to college. I enjoyed reading Harry’s exploits once again in the more carefree, less serious days before the events in [b:Changes|6585201|Changes (The Dresden Files, #12)|Jim Butcher|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1304027244s/6585201.jpg|6778696]. Humor is prevalent throughout as is Harry’s ability to see the bigger picture and help out his fellow man (and non-human friends as well).

A definite read for Dresden fans.
