I'd like to see more books in line with the Dresden series - Paranormal Detective stories - with a male main character.  The genre seems swamped with female leads (ie. L.K. Hamilton).  And before anyone brands me a Chauvinist - I've read all of Hamilton's books - loved the first 1/2 dozen - as well Kim Harrison and Charlaine Harris.  They're great - they give me a quick fix - but more and more they rely on romance/sex/etc to move the story along - and not enough mystery/plot.

Has anyone stumbled across a series - or even a lone book - that fits the bill.  It would have to be fairly new - or fairly old - as I've read just about everything on the B&N bookshelf.
