Slightly OT, but - man, I want to like these books. I've read the first three, and some of the characters are fascinating (Murphy and Thomas, especially, but not only them). And I like the worldbuilding, for the most part. But - I can't get over the main character being a tremendous asshole. Please, someone tell me that if I keep reading he'll get more tolerable? Please? (Also, please tell me that the Christian knight with the stick up his ass doesn't become a frequent recurring character? Because he was worse than Dresden.)

I'm on book eleven, and I have a confession to make: I sure as hell don't read the series for Harry. I read it for the supporting cast -- Murphy, Thomas, Lara, poor Lash, Luccio, Ebenezar, Kincaid, Ivy, Mab, Lea, Mouse... (Marcone doesn't really interest me, tbh, which from what I've gathered puts me in the fandom minority, but oh well.)

(Michael does become a recurring character -- nearly everyone does -- but he's fleshed out in the process and becomes more likeable, imo. Just wait till you meet his fellow Knight of God who's an agnostic.)

I just want to say that I think the third book is the worst in the series. I would give book 4 a try before writing off the series for good.

(And I agree with the anon about the supporting cast being fantastic. I like Harry but I can see why others wouldn't, but he isn't my favorite character in the series.)

Oh, definitely. Book 4 is really where the series starts to hit its stride and suck you in.

I remember when I was in an off-topic chatroom for a game I've been playing, and Dresden Files came up. When I voiced my concerns (having read only the first three books), almost everyone said for me to give book 4 a try first. And also how they knew that book 3 was a bit soul-crushing. So I went to the library, and I'm glad I did.

When I reread the series again there's a good chance I'll skip book 3. (It's a bit of a toss up if I would, though, because it is the book where we first meet Thomas.)

Michael turns out to be kinda awesome, actually.
