Out Law by Jim Butcher:

5 Stars

Sometimes, it’s not easy being the good guy. Harry Dresden is presented with an opportunity to help someone learn from past mistakes. Obviously, it is not that straightforward.

Jim Butcher’s Out Law is funny, vivid, and action-packed. The story has memorable one-liners (Max, in particular, is hilarious), it successfully plays with the 4th wall, and follows a clear moral path without becoming didactic. The world is textured, the dialogue sharp, the characters memorable, and the style both clever and consistent.

If you like your urban fantasy main characters self-aware, sardonic, and ethical when it gets tough, coupled with the odd gross-out moment, I recommend Out Law.

Thank you to Podium Entertainment/Podium Publishing for the opportunity to read this ARC. I received an uncorrected ARC of Out Law through NetGalley; typos and usage errors were not factored into this voluntary review.
