Where are parts 2 and 3? The first part was good-I had listened to the book before but wanted to try it with a full cast-- now I just need parts 2 and 3.

The year is 3030. For the past 300 years, since the Star League collapse and the rise of the Five Successor States, these mortal enemies have fought over space, land, and politics. But a new threat looms just outside the Inner Sphere. The descendants of an old Star League general, the Clans, bred to be the best military force humanity has ever seen, have come to take what they believe is rightfully theirs.

Great Book but abridged
Reviewed: 07-25-19
Great Battletech story but would prefer an unabridged version. It helps if you know battletech lore since the abridged version skips a lot of key points.

For Ezra Payne and the Stealthy Tiger mercenaries, professionalism is everything. Hired to assist in the bitter, bloody fighting on the planet Hall, they quickly earn a decisive victory for their employer. They settle afterward in for a needed period of rebuilding, and a few months’ peace before moving on to the next contract. But their respite does not last.

An all-new Dresden Files story headlines this urban fantasy short story collection starring the Windy City's favorite wizard. From the Wild West to the bleachers at Wrigley Field, humans, zombies, incubi, and even fey royalty appear, ready to blur the line between friend and foe. In the never-before-published "Zoo Day", Harry treads new ground as a dad, while fan-favorite characters Molly Carpenter, his onetime apprentice, White Council Warden Anastasia Luccio, and even Bigfoot stalk through the pages of more classic tales.

Nice intermission while waiting for next book
Reviewed: 06-13-18
Nice to see some of the friends of Harry get their own time to shine. While not groundbreaking it was also nice to read a Dresden story that did not invoke the fate of mankind. Will listen to some of the series again while waiting on the next book.

There are reasons we fear the night. He isn't one of them. Bill Ryder was a dateless dweeb...then he died. Unfortunately for him that was just the beginning of his troubles. He awoke to find himself a vampire, one of the legendary predators of the night. Unfortunately for him, he was still at the bottom of the food chain. Now he finds himself surrounded by creatures stronger, deadlier and a whole lot cooler than he is. Worst yet, they all want him dead...permanently this time.

No one's tried to kill Harry Dresden for almost an entire year, and his life finally seems to be calming down. For once, the future looks fairly bright. But the past casts one hell of a long shadow.

This is the tenth book of the series and not only is the narration great on Small Favor but as always Dresden Delivers. Do yourself a favor listen or read any Dresden story published. Audible please pick up the first 9!
