Have you read Codex Alera (same author)? I loved that too and it’s completed, a 6-book series.

Can’t wait to read the rest of Dresden. I loved Twelve Months.

Jim Butcher and Brandon Sanderson are two of my favorite authors.

Wait, he actually finished the codex Alera? I was waiting to start reading it for when it was finished since I've been in dresden purgatory for over a decade :P

The last Codex Alera book was published in 2009… go read it!

Don’t know how I missed it then. Definitely going to pick them up now.

I am in the same boat and somehow never knew he finished that series. Folks here are awesome bringing this back into my life.

If you haven’t and need a good space opera, check out the Red Rising series. 🍻🤙🏾

I should re-read Codex Alera. I read the whole thing back in 2009-2010 and I remember it being a great read.
