The Dresden Files > DF Books

Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?

Sort of, I guess. I heard about the show when it was in development, and then went and investigated the books. :)

Mongward:
I first saw the series' name on TvTropes, but always assumed it was something about the city of Dresden and dismissed it as historical fiction, which is something I generally take no interest in. It wasn't until several years later that on an RPG forum I frequented and moderated back then, one of the users made a wizarding game, in its blurb defined as having been inspired by the Dresden Files. That triggered my interest and made me grab the ebooks of Polish (my native tongue) edition of the time. The rest is history.
Although if several of my current group of friends were to answer the OP question, they'd likely say "there was that hairy dude who kept yapping about Dresden Files, so I gave it a try". I regret nothing :D

The show has converted another... My wife went from book one to book 5 in about a month  :D

Working as security guard on nights and a local chanel (Greece here) had it on the 01:00 slot, usually after "Treshold". I found it kind of interesting, so I checked Wikipedia about the show and found it was based on books. I was looking for any modern fantasy to read during night shifts, so it was a great coincidence. And then got totally sidetracked, because of the whole Laurell Hamilton thing Jim said and found out his books weren't translated in greek yet, but the first five of the "Anita Blake" series was, so I bought those until I could order the Dresden Files through Amazon.
