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...It's not very nice to be killed. Harry Dresden thinks exactly the same. But imagine his surprise when, instead of a quiet place in a cemetery, he finds himself in Chicago Between - a purgatory city, between the world of the dead and the world of the living. And Harry now has only two options: either stay here and do police work, or go to the world of the living to solve his own murder. True, not otherwise than in the form of a ghost. Harry chooses the second (“A Ghost Story”). It doesn’t get any easier from hour to hour. Mab, the Queen of Air and Darkness, instructs Harry - and he is her Winter Knight and cannot disobey the Queen's orders - to kill not just anyone, but her daughter Maeve, the Winter Lady. But she, like all fairies, is immortal. Therefore the task is impossible. Sort of. And is it necessary to obey Mab? What if she was damaged in her mind? Or is it controlled by some dark forces? In general, for the sorcerer Harry, wherever he goes, there are only problems (“Cold Days”). 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.
