interesting and engaging, Butcher really commands the world he builds and the magic system makes sense and feels accessable as a reader. the solution to the crime was predictable and I spent the whole book waiting for the protagonist to catch up, but that's not really a fault of the book. I still can quite figure out if Harry was written to be a misogynistic asshole as a character flaw or if Harry's view of women was a product of the time it was written. curious to see how the series develops.
