2/5. Yeah, I dunno, I think I'm in the place with this series where I'll wait until it's finished and skip ahead and read the last book. Because right now this is going places that literally had me say "nope!" out loud to my living room. Specifically at ( spoilers ) Oh and there's the ( major character death ), which didn't really phase me, but I mention it since I suspect some of you would want to be spoiled for that.
Oh also also, someone clearly has told Butcher all about the brief-lived slash fandom,* because there are at least two har har funny jokes about the main slash pairing. I only had to cover my face in pain a little.
*I will not hear of the other explanation, that he reads in it. I mean, there are lots of authors who read in their own fandoms, obviously, and as long as they are polite and pseudonymous, more power to them. But the thought of Butcher inhabiting some of those fannish spaces is deeply, deeply squicky to me.
