Welcome to the Jungle (The Dresden Files)
Welcome to the Jungle (The Dresden Files)
Jim Butcher
Harry Dresden isn't your typical private investigator. Not only does he break rules and rub people the wrong way with his unconventional methods, he is a wizard. And what does that get him? Not much. He can barely keep up with his rent, and drives around a beat-up old VW bug. Life of glamor this is not. But when you need someone to beat up ugly monsters and supernatural creatures threatening the humans of Chicago, he is the man you want on your side. So when a killing at the zoo is blamed on a beloved gorilla, it is Harry who is called in to see what really is going on.
A bit too gruesome and violent for school collections, but will strongly appeal to teens who love urban fantasy and horror. Recommended for high school and up.
