The Dresden Files is a series of contemporary fantasy/mystery novels
written by American author Jim Butcher. The first novel, Storm Front,
was published in 2000 by Roc Books.The books are written as a
first-person narrative from the perspective of the main character,
private investigator and wizard Harry Dresden, as he recounts
investigations into supernatural disturbances in modern-day Chicago.
Butcher's original proposed title for the first novel was
Semiautomagic, which sums up the series' balance of fantasy and
hard-boiled detective fiction.As of 2020, Butcher has written 17
novels set in the Dresden Files universe, plus a number of short
stories (some of which are collected in the anthologies Side Jobs and
Brief Cases). The series has also been released in audiobook format,
narrated by James Marsters. Other works set in the same fictional
universe include graphic novels (several new stories, plus adaptations
of the first two novels), and The Dresden Files Roleplaying Game. In
2007, a television series based on the novels aired for one season on
the American Sci-Fi Channel.
