Review of 'Skin Game (The Dresden Files, #15)' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Jim Butcher has created a world with so many rivals, all with their own motives, that the series has an ever-increasing momentum. Butcher's characters are all well-known now. As a reader, I--like Harry--have seen Murphy, Molly, Butters, and the rest grow. With Harry now sold to Mab, he must do her bidding, and Mab puts him in the worst situation imaginable. The story has been described as a heist and, yeah, that happens too, but there is a bigger story being prepared, and Skin Game gives us a ton of clues.

Meanwhile, Harry must navigate Mabs deadly restrictions and is challenged like never before (again). This story is how he can rise to the occasion and survive, if he can. We already know by now that's no foregone conclusion.
