None of the above. My first dresden book was White Night and I bought it from the book section in Kroger on a lunch break from work because I wanted a good book to read and the intro on the back caught my attention. I got through the whole book like a chocolate addict eats a box of whitmans. I bought the entire series (at the time white night was the newest) the next day. I was not dissapppointed (until i saw how different the tv show was, hells bells the tv show didnt measure up)
