Don't worry, it refers to using actual thunder storms for evil magic stuff.

Yeah Butcher is pretty good about being anti-racist even if he can be a bit of a creep. Which is a very good thing, considering the characters who start showing up in later books and reveals about certain skulls.

Based on his other two series, I’d contend that while Dresden is a creep at times, Butcher himself doesn’t seem to be one.

I do appreciate him dialing it back for Cinder Spires. Maybe he can stick the landing with the latest plot developments in the Dresden Files but I doubt it.

Is there more than 1 book out for the spires?

[–] ultranaut@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Second book came out a few months ago.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah the second one came out in 2023. Haven't read it yet personally but I assume it stayed the course from the first one.
