Fails to capture the essence of Harry Dresden
As an avid Jim Butcher and Harry Dresden fan, someone who had read and loved all of the Dresden Files books...I was sorely disappointed by this series. The Dresden Files Book series is one of extreme promise, and I was excited when I heard there would be a television series as well, but unfortunately...
Nothing lives up to the book, nothing is the same. The only common elements are the character names, and the fact that Dresden is a wizard. But all the key elements that make Harry what he is, an amazing and well written character, are not captured by this show. I do not in any way blame the acting.. I blame the writing. Harry's wit, tone, and feeling have been lost.
If you want to see the real Dresden, read the books.. do not dare settle for this show.
The first book of the series is called Storm Front. Go buy it.
score 4/10
