His name is Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden. You can do magic with this name - he is not responsible for the consequences. When things take a strange turn, when something that should be buried in darkness comes to light, when no one else can help you, call... Who? To him, Harry Dresden. His name is in the Yellow Pages... Halloween didn't go well that year. The cold is terrible, Chicago is covered in snow. And then the poor sorcerer Dresden met Mab, the mistress of the fairy people, and she reminded Harry that he owed a favor and it was time to return this favor. But how? Because the task set by the Queen is reminiscent of the well-known saying “Go there - I don’t know where, find that - I don’t know what” (“A Small Favor”). If in the morning a barely alive, all wounded person shows up at your house and asks for help, of course, you will send him away and return to watch your pleasant morning dream. But that's not Harry Copperfield Dresden. Despite the fact that this declared person is such a bad person that there is nowhere to put the stigma. And there is no benefit from it. But the troubles, injuries and other things are beyond the roof... (“Skin for sale”). The series of novels about Harry Dresden occupies a worthy place on a par with such a famous example of a fantasy detective story as the series about the adventures of Garrett, written by Glen Cook.
