Jim Butcher has written quite a few fiction books . Which series have you been reading and what are the themes in some of the stories. What is your favorite jim Butcher book?
The Dresden Files is my favorite series - probably my favorite book out of that is “Changes”, where he’s become a Winter Knight. Good frozen fight scenes.

I assume this book would be aimed at cat lovers. Grant also wrote a book Second-Chance Horses. She also wrote Harriet Tubman. Enjoy Second-Chance Cats. They are wonderful pets.

I have actually read the Hobbit years ago but not the lord of the rings trilogy (while I've watched the movies countless times). I have also read the Silmarillion. The books I was referring to were more like "Beren and Luthien" or "The children of Hurin".
