Tread Perilously's fantasy month continues with an episode of The Dresden Files called "Walls." When Harry Dresden witnesses the death of a potential client, he uncovers a trio of frat brothers who have learned a way to do short-range teleportation via a magic relic. They immediately use it to commit crimes. But considering the killer Harry glimpsed may in fact be the spirit contained in the object, are the three bros as much victims as perpetrators? Will Harry stop them in time to save their lives or will a long-dead thief steal it all away? Finally, it has happened: Erik and Justin discuss The Dresden Files. The pair mention the pedigree of the show and their admiration for episode writers Robert Hewitt Wolfe and Hans Beimler.  They also geek about co-star Terrance Mann. Justin reveals a shocking fact about his connection to the series. A surprising amount of books are recommended. The Chicago part of Toronto never leads to a Geography Corner, but it does mean pizza. Erik gives high marks to Valerie Cruz's amazing hair in the episode. Star Paul Blackthorne also proves to be a great lead. A surprise casting idea for Darkseid emerges. The invention of urban fantasy becomes a key topic and the cast of The Fantastic Four: First Steps gets appraised.

Jim Butcher, author of the Dresden Files, Codex Alera, and the Cinder Spires, joins us live on Story Craft Cafe to talk about the hardest moment in any series. The "All Is Lost" beat. The point where everything your protagonist has built comes apart, right before the climax. We're asking Jim how he lands this beat across a long-running series (one that started over 20 years ago and is still going). How does "All Is Lost" work in book 4 vs. book 14? When do you hold back, and when do you scorch the earth? And how do you keep raising the stakes without breaking the story you've built? Grab coffee. Bring your craft questions. This is a live recording of the Story Craft Cafe podcast. WHAT WE'LL COVER -What the "All Is Lost" moment is, and why you can't skip it -How to build to it in a single novel vs. across a full series -Jim's approach to plotting the Dresden Files across 17+ books -How to raise series stakes without breaking the story you've built -Writing from deep inside a long-running world GUEST BIO Jim Butcher is the author of the Dresden Files, the Codex Alera, and a new steampunk series, the Cinder Spires. His resume includes a laundry list of skills which were useful a couple of centuries ago, and he plays guitar quite badly. An avid gamer, he plays tabletop games in varying systems, a variety of video games on PC and console, and LARPs whenever he can make time for it. Jim currently resides mostly inside his own head, but his head can generally be found in the mountains outside Denver, Colorado. Jim goes by the moniker Longshot in a number of online locales. He came by this name in the early 1990's when he decided he would become a published author. Usually only 3 in 1000 who make such an attempt actually manage to become published; of those, only 1 in 10 make enough money to call it a living. The sale of a second series was the breakthrough that let him beat the long odds against attaining a career as a novelist. All the same, he refuses to change his nickname.

As Christians, we don't have to be afraid of books that don't match our faith.But sometimes? It's really nice to read stories we can enjoy without compromise.After the huge response to my recent episode on SFF Books That Don't Hate Christianity, you all flooded the comments with recommendations. So today I'm back with FIVE ranked sections of Christian-friendly fantasy and sci-fi — from lesser-known gems to major Christian SFF staples, to surprising TBR discoveries… and even a few big-name titles I'm honestly embarrassed I didn't mention last time.From The Wingfeather Saga and Ted Dekker's Circle Series, to A Canticle for Leibowitz, The Holy War, The Dresden Files, and many more — this list spans centuries, genres, and styles.Whether you're looking for explicitly Christian fiction or stories that simply take faith, morality, and redemption seriously, there's something here for you.We love all kinds of SFF here at Fantasy for the Ages. But today's episode is about the ones where you don't have to tilt your head at 30% to find the beauty.

In anticipation of the newest entry in The Dresden Files series (which will be out by the time this episode drops), we're diving headfirst into Jim Butcher's beloved urban fantasy world. From wizard-for-hire Harry Dresden and his ever-growing list of supernatural problems to the blend of noir detective vibes, magic, monsters, and heart, we discuss what makes this long-running book series such a fandom staple—and why now is the perfect time to jump in (or jump back in). Plus some fandom news, quite a bit of feedback, and a bit of a side-tangent so Rachel can give a quick review of her recent seeing of MJ The Musical.

Some have vanished. Others appear to be victims of suicide. But now the culprit has left a calling card at one of the crime scenes—a message for Harry Dresden.Harry sets out to find the apparent serial killer, but his investigation turns up evidence pointing to the one suspect he cannot possibly believe guilty: his half-brother, Thomas. To clear his brother's name, Harry rushes into a supernatural power struggle that renders him outnumbered, outclassed, and dangerously susceptible to temptation.And Harry knows that if he screws this one up, people will die—and one of them will be his brother…White Night Chapter 1 Summary:Murphy brings Harry to an unofficial crime scene to ask him for his opinion. There he finds a dead magic practitioner and a hidden message on a wall.White Night Chapter 2 Summary:Harry and Murphy discuss the unofficial crime scene and religious interpretations.

DRESDEN FILES AUTHOR JIM BUTCHER TODAY AT 2:30 My son introduced me to the Dresden Files a few years ago and the series is a delight. It follows the adventures of wizard and private investigator Harry Dresden as he investigates all manner of supernatural disturbances in modern day Chicago. Yesterday while prepping for the interview I read this about how he got published and it's a fantastic tale in an of itself about perseverance winning out. He's got a new book coming out January 20th and you can pre order your copy here, and this gives you plenty of time to read the rest of the series first, amiright? The Dresden Files isn't his only series, he's also written the Codex Alera, and the Cinder Spires novels though I'm not familiar with either. I found out yesterday that Ben Allbright is a super fan of Jim's as well so he may pop in to fanboy all over him.

I've got Rick Lewis in to talk about a fundraiser his band is playing, Nick Ferguson and Steven Williams to talk black culture, and Dresden Files author Jim Dresden to talk about his new book.

#1 New York Times bestselling author, Jim Butcher, spoke with me about how he outlined a hit 20-novel series (years before he had an agent), why all steampunks wear goggles, and the second book in his Cinder Spires series, THE OLYMPIAN AFFAIR. Jim Butcher is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Dresden Files, the Codex Alera, and the Cinder Spires novels. The long-anticipated second novel in his Cinder Spires series is The Olympian Affair, described by the author as “League of Extraordinary Gentlemen meets Sherlock meets Hornblower,” in a series “... about noble families, magic-wielding warriors, and airship battles.” Library Journal called it “... an exciting epic fantasy, set in the sky and filled with airships, magic, and the connections of blood and found family." And New York Times bestselling author David Weber said of the book, “It's steampunk meets magic with a dose of sci-fi for seasoning.” [Discover ⁠The Writer Files Extra⁠: Get 'The Writer Files' Podcast Delivered Straight to Your Inbox at ⁠writerfiles.fm⁠] [If you're a fan of The Writer Files, please ⁠click FOLLOW to automatically see new interviews⁠.
