Synopsis
Now in hardcover for the first time- book five in the New York Times bestselling Dresden Files series!
Harry Dresden, Chicago's only practicing professional wizard, should be happy that business is pretty good for a change. But he also knows that whenever things are going good, the only way left for them to go is bad. Way bad.
Recent examples: A duel with the lethal champion of the Red Court, who must kill Harry to end the war between vampires and wizards...Hit men using Harry for target practice...The missing Shroud of Turin-and the possible involvement of Chicago's most feared mob boss...A handless and headless corpse the Chicago police need identified...
Not to mention the return of Harry's ex-girlfriend Susan, who's still struggling with her semi-vampiric nature-and who seems to have a new man in her life.
Some days, it just doesn't pay to get out of bed. No matter how much you're charging.

Love Dresden!by Lollypop99

January 09, 2010: Dresden is such a unique character. I must recommend that you read the first four books before reading this one. Death Masks can stand alone, but in order to truly under the Dresden character and what he is made of, I think you need to return to book one. Of course, silly me, one of my favorite characters in the book is the talking skull, go figure, but there are quirks and uniqueness in all of the sub-characters so take my word and read this series.
