They're that bad?
Also, why does everyone think Harry's the one that KILL PPL

he killed someone with black magic. Black magic is addictive...
Technicality that saved him. In their eyes, he's still a criminal. It's like a drug dealer who got out of his sentence because he technically wasn't selling them, he was "giving them to friends".Originally Posted by Erlkonig

Also, are all vampires like Bianca? The whole human-that-turns-into-bat-abomination thing?

Red court are the flabby black bat-things. There are three types of "vampire" (white, red and black courts, in order of decreasing... "humanity"), but the species that drink human blood aren't limited to just those. There are plenty of things that feed on humans.

Do Dragons exist? I faintly remember Harry mentioning them some pages ago

Uh... Yeah. But the only one we've seen was along the lines of the chinese dragons, only in human form. Chinese dragons are basically sort of like cosmic deities, in charge of galaxies and concepts and stuff. We briefly see one, Harry annoys him, he crumples Harry like a piece of paper with about the same effort you'd use to nudge someone, and then strolls off.
And when I say strolls off, I mean he vanishes. Like he was never there.

We actually see some more impressive stuff (some done by Harry), but no outright break-the-damn-rules crap, like Mr Ferro did just then.

You know, I never did like that phrase. If Harry was still feeling it, which if memory serves he was, I believe there was some kind of pressure put on him? anyway, that isn't "like he was never there at all".

I think that was his godmother, actually. He got pretty badly screwed at that party. Vampire venom, Leah's contract, Ferro metaphorically leaning on him...
Not sure, but then, it's been a while since I went that far back in the books.

...Just finished Storm Front.
I have to say, this was nothing short of amazing. I love how the author carefully pieces together a story that resembles one of those detective movies so much, and then builds a fantastic world around it, full of excitement and action. Speaking of action, you could really notice how strong the action scenes were, and the dangers Harry faced were, well, dangers that seemed real in that universe- that is to say, it really felt as if Harry was in actual danger.
All in all, I liked it.
Really really liked it. Dresden Files, here's a toast to you, and you get yet another fan of the series.

Funny thing about Storm Front is, Butcher wrote it as a sort of "lol look how bad this sucks".
I think his words were somewhere along the lines of "And so to show my editor, I decided to write a novel like some kind of formulaic writing drone. My editor considered it publishable, and x months later, Storm Front was out."
And get used to the Harry-is-in-mortal-peril thing, it'll come up a lot. Along with Harry-is-in-pain, Harry-gets-his-butt-kicked, Harry-in-the-middle-of-a-supernatural-war, and a massive side order of holy-shit-he's-screwed.

And a bunch of carpenter's kicking ass.
And that's the joy of the series, really. I just re-read Storm Front myself a few weeks ago. And I noticed two things:
1) It is easily lower quality than the other books in the series, as one would expect from the author's first work.
2) It's STILL PRETTY FUCKIN' GOOD!
That? That, is quality I cannot argue with.
. . . I hate to necro a thread, but I got a Dresden newbie asking if we have a thread so . . .
It's Harry and I'm a motherfucking admin so I'm necroing the thread.
Fuck yeah, Harry's a Mother Fucking Wizard.
