Dresden files who is kincaid

Harry gets an Idea. Jean-Claude gets his inner Diva on. In other words, the triumvirate goes to a Renaissance Festival. Harry's consultation gig is going rather well: with vampire and lycan rights movements being a thing more people are open to the idea of hiring a wizard. Person thing. But it seems the more things change, the more they stay the same, and Harry gets a call that takes him back to his old stomping grounds.

My favorite is probably from an unpublished short story I wrote, set in the Dresden Files universe, but during the Battle of the Bulge. The Nazis had a sorcerer operating out of an old monastery, and the White Council dispatched the Belgian wizard, Klaus the Toymaker. My favorite moment was when he killed a couple of SS-summoned demons with a windup wooden duck. What kind of magic does Martha Liberty specialize in? Thaumaturgy, specifically information-gathering.

Not ever. They have no need to show off, and constantly displaying how scary they are would be counter to their own interests.

The original Merlin learned a lesson about wizards involving themselves in politics. They already have too much power to use wisely, from his point of view.

The Lord of the Rings there was a White Council, of the wise, and it was Gandalf and Saruman, and several of the other Lord of the Rings characters who were the magic heavy characters.

And I really liked that concept, and I thought, well if the wizards are going to exist on this world then they are going to have some kind of organization of one kind or another, and the White Council ends up being kind of the Bar organization for the wizards you know. Sometimes he does the right thing, sometimes the wrong. Will there be a book where he goes full good guy or bad guy? I say this, of course, only because I miss the recently departed Shark Week.

Is that significant or have you changed your mind on? There is a reason for that. Harry and Elaine come from the same philosophical background as far as magic is concerned… Or at least so he believes in any case. I guess we will have to see if Elaine thinks the same way. Who here has read White Knight so far?

It says something about what they think and what they believe. His longer answer was yes, he had said that before, that Harry and Elaine are just a few months apart age wise so for all intensive purposes the same age. The key word in my question and his answer was potential. Yes, and no. There will be some that factor in, and Elaine is kind of the executive president of the Paranet. Supporting character have surprised me before.

Jim said at the DC signing that He was aware that Fitz ment bastard and he picked the name intentionally -Serack. And hey, the younger Ramirez is, the easier it is to ship him with Molly! IE, Ramirez. Way back in Dead Beat, when Harry first meets corpse taker and nearly dies he is saved by Gard. One might think of it as them working for the same general organization, but in very, VERY different divisions.

Not for a while. Is it possible that Susan left a ghost that we might encounter later? Harry : Get a grip, Harry. She does what she wants with who she wants. I ran through those thoughts a couple of times, found them impeccably logical, morally unassailable, and still wanted to slug Kincaid. Harry manages to get his shield up, but the shield is built for kinetic energy, not heat, and so it literally cooks his entire hand. I wish I could describe how traumatizing it is to read about my favorite character in pure agony sacrificing literally life and limb to save innocent lives.

Go Team Dresden. He also tells her about Thomas being his half-brother. But I digress. Murphy heads out to gear up for their next move, and in the meantime Harry forces Ebenezar to tell him the truth. I came up with:. We also find out Kincaid is a changeling who used to work for Vlad Tepes. Yes, Kincaid used to work for freaking Dracula. That feeling in your chest of being impaled?

Straight through the freaking heart, man. Rightfully so, Harry is angry and Ebenezar leaves. Once he calms down a bit, he calls for Thomas but finds out Thomas is M. Harry talks Lara into helping him in exchange for defeating Lord Raith so that she can assume command of the White Court.

She agrees. Murphy comes to pick Harry up on her motorcycle and takes him back to Castle Raith. Just after they do, someone from the manor opens fire on them but Murphy takes him out. Lara attends to the wounded party while Harry and Murphy go after Thomas in a cave called the Deeps. The baddies come after them and they play chicken, which Harry and Murphy win.

Unfortunately, not long after they come to a stop, Lord Raith has Murphy at knifepoint. Raith reveals that he thinks a ceremony sacrificing the two remaining sons of Margaret LeFay might end her curse so he drags them down with him into the Deeps. However, Trixie has finally outlived her usefulness too so Madge and Raith kill her as well.

However, the bad guys hear sirens and Lord Raith goes to see if they took Inari with them. Harry uses this time to distract the bodyguard holding a gun on him and Murphy takes her out with extreme prejudice, and I love that they two of them have such perfect chemistry that she caught onto his plan without him saying a word to her about it.

Harry : Took you long enough. I was going to run out of actual sentences and just start screaming incoherently. Harry : Me not like woman with smart mouth. Woman shut smart mouth and get me free or no wild monkey love for you. Raith returns and Harry and Murphy jump him.

Murphy and Harry intervene enough to stop the ritual and the power kills Madge. She chooses Harry. We have a bit of a long denoument where everything is wrapped up. Blood Rites is the ultimate experience in a Dresden Files novel, if you ask me. Everything great about this series and this character is represented in full.
