#81 Side Jobs
We should have read the short stories first! Apologies to the entire Dresdenverse. Side Jobs by Jim Butcher is a fantastic extra helping of the Dresden Files, complete with new perspectives and viewpoints. It's a necessary read for any magical residents of Chicago. Plus, why Stephen's childhood fear of Carrie was well-founded!
