The Dresden Files

The Dresden Files are Jim's first published series, telling the story of Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden, Chicago's first (and only) Wizard P.I.

Jim has commented in the past that he's got ideas for running the series into the lower twenties, at least — here's hoping the publisher agrees!

The Science Fiction Book Club has gathered the first three books together in a hardcover collection entitled Wizard for Hire

Short Stories
Harry Dresden also appears in some short story collections, which we've given their own page. See our store for more
Extras

Ever wonder how Harry did as a private eye before he set out on his own? Read about Harry's life as a Ragged Angel in Jim's short story, Restoration of Faith.

Also, here's a vignette that Jim did as a part of promoting the series.
