Books Like [White Night] [By: Butcher, Jim] [May, 2011]

Read more

James Marsters narrates Jim Butcher's Dresden Files with the practiced fluency of someone who has been living inside Harry's head for years — the supernatural noir voice he brings to the Chicago wizard is low-key menacing without being monotonous, and the 14-hour runtime moves with the propulsive logic of a hardboiled case that keeps escalating. Marsters knows exactly when to let a line land and when to push through. The same author fills six of the recommendations and Marsters narrates the top pick himself, giving readers who want more of this specific performer-author relationship a direct path forward.
