The Dresden Files may be getting another shot at television success, as author Jim Butcher revealed he's currently in negotiations for a new adaptation of his beloved urban fantasy series.
These books are great, but the TV show definitely didn't live up to them, not even a little. Hopefully Butcher stays strongly involved and keeps them on track.
This is wonderful news. I read the books because I watched the TV show, and it ended so abruptly. However, I did enjoy the premise of the Show once I got elbow-deep in Storm Front; that was it. I assumed there was not going to be another show because Hollywood changes too much, and the Dresden Files were too nuanced for it to work. The last book did not catch me like the others, but the Aeronaut's Windlass did catch me. I wish Butcher all the best. I will be very happy to see Bob, as he should be a dead necromancer inhabiting a skull.
I saw and enjoyed the series long before I read the books (which I very much enjoy too). I thought the different version of Murphy worked very well. All that being said, I am really looking fwd to watching this new live action version, here's hoping it gets a longer run.

I read the entire Dresden series but have lost interest over the last couple of books.
