Review of 'Blood rites' on 'Storygraph'

3 stars

Blood Rites, the sixth book of Dresden Files was, in a larger scale, a disappointment. Badly edited and at times really boring, inconsistent and predictable the book left much more to desire in terms of quality.

What saved the experience for me was the fact that despite the shallowness of the book and the story now told, the foundation that Harry Dresden is build upon got immensely deeper, better, stronger and more complex with the twists and turns that this subpar installation offered.

There seem to be atleast two stories at a time happening in these books and the more important one, the one that continues from one book to the other, was developing well over Blood Rites. So well infact that I'm confident that the next parts will have lots to offer for me.

And I'm looking forward to that!
