Teaser Tuesday: Side Jobs by Jim Butcher

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)

Share the title and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

My teaser this week is from Side Jobs: Stories from the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. This is a collection of all of the short stories that Butcher has written in the world of Harry Dresden who is the only mage listed in the Chicago phone book. I really enjoy the series and like having all the stories gathered together in one volume.


Harry is a wonderful character. He's a knight errant with a tarnished sword and a very smart mouth. I love the stories.


The teaser:

I let out a battle cry. Sure, a lot of people might have mistaken it for a sudden yelp of unmanly fear, but trust me: It was a battle cry.

Sure, Harry, whatever you say....
