White Night in NYT’s top 5!

Jim’s books continue to grow in popularity! WHITE NIGHT is currently #4 in Hardcover Fiction on Publishers Weekly and #5 on the New York Times Bestseller list, as well as #17 on USA Today.
Want those numbers in context? Compare them with PROVEN GUILTY, which reached #21 on the New York Times Bestseller List and #91 on the USA Today List last year. Jim largely credits the TV series for effectively tripling his sales: the hardback edition of PROVEN GUILTY had an initial print run of 35,000, whereas WHITE NIGHT’s initial run was 100,000.
Grab a festive hat, because it’s party time!

  1. Thank you Jim for such a great series. Each book just gets better. I ordered an autographed book of White Night from Dog-Eared Books and I feel like I own a Piccaso! I hope this continues to be available for future books. I also enjoy the art work for the jacket covers and hope the same artist will continue to be used. Again, thank you for such good books and writing them in a timely manner. There is never too long a wait.

  2. OMG i love your series i practice magic myself and find it very accurate at least in ritual cases keep up the book and please keep harry sarcastic

  3. You’ve surprised me. I’ve never been a science fiction fan, but after reading your Dresden Files series . . . I’m hooked and impatiently waiting to find out what kind of trouble Harry will get himself into next. My husband and I have to flip for who gets to read the latest book first. Thanks. It’s nice to be surprised.

  4. Jim I am hooked on the Dresden Files so much that i wet to Barns and Nobles and bought all the collection of your books but i want the series back on the Sci Fi channel cause that is the best serie i have ever been hooked on cause i am tired of the shows they have on now and before I could not wait for Sunday to watch Dresden and I just can”t stop talking about Harry and his magic. And I love Bob.

  7. Congratulations Jim!!! Glad to see the rest of the country is catching on to your genius! It’s wonderful to see true talent be noticed & appreciated! I’m 1/2 way through reading the series for the 2nd time – something I don’t usually do so soon – & am enjoying it as much if not more than the 1st read! THANK YOU for hours of reading pleasure!!!

  8. Jim, I had never heard of Dresden untill I saw the show and when my husband baught the books through SCi Fi BC I thought Okay…then I started to read them and got done with the first one before a week was out (first three HD’s) I more than enjoy your writing. I love it, It is like being able to get in someone elses head and root around. The way that you blend modern Wicca and High magical practice and theory into fiction is wonderful, and refreshingly accurate. Hubby found the rest of your books and I finished White Knight today. Sci Fi has not lived up to the books. I don’t think that they ever could.
    And the last sex with Susan…….
    Oh Harry……
    Keep up the good Work!

  10. Jim, I’ve read all of your books, including White Night (purchased AND read yesterday to completion) and wanted to say that I can’t wait for the next Harry Dresden adventure. What Rowling did for kids, you’ve done for adults.

  11. I ordered White Knight and preordered Small Favor. What sold me on buying the hardcovers as opposed to the paperbacks was the price that Amazon.com is selling them for. Normally, the price is too expensive for me but they are selling them for the price of a trade paperback. Yea! I have the first eight and am avidly reading them. Go, go, go, Jim!
