Yep... cliffhanger... to be continued at a later date I guess.
Changes really was an good title for the book... everything changed.  By the time you get to the end you're left with, "what happens next?"

And now you have to wait A YEAR.

Re: The Dresden Files
Next book is gonna be called Ghost Story... & I found this little tid bit on wikipedia.
& I don't want to hear any crap about wikipedia, I like it, it works, not everything on there is made up or completely false.
Quote:
Harry's story will continue in Aftermath, told from Karrin Murphy's point of view and running from roughly half an hour after the end of Changes. The story will be released as part of Side Jobs, a collection of Dresden shorts due for release in late summer or early autumn of 2010.
Jim Butcher has already signed for a thirteenth Dresden novel, tentatively listed as Ghost Story on his official forums, and confirmed by Butcher at several signings ( his publishers wouldnt let him call it the more prosaic Dead). He has also confirmed that Changes marks the midpoint of Harry's story and there will be at least 7 more books, possibly 10, to finish Harry's story.

Re: The Dresden Files
"Side Jobs" (short story collection), "Ghost Story" and 7 to 10 more novels after "Ghost Story."  Thanks for the good news.

Re: The Dresden Files

Re: The Dresden Files
I started reading the books because of the show... turns out the show sucked. Compared to the books at least.
Dresden Files is the one books series I try to recomend to everybody...

Well.... I did like Paul Blackthorne as Harry, Valerie Cruz as Murph (aside from being a brunette, not Irish, not 5'0" and having the wrong firstname. She seemed to have the Murph personality down pat.), Terrence Mann as Bob, and Joanne Kelly as Bianca (even though they did write her wrong. Boy, there's one HOT Newfie!  ).

Re: The Dresden Files
Side Jobs comes out on October 26th...
For those of you that don't read Dresden Files, & some of you that do... each book only covers a couple days in the life of Harry Dresden. With that said, some short stories were published inbetween books and some were just done to give you a better understanding of Harry. There's also a graphic novel called Welcome to the Jungle...
Most importantly, for those of you that have just read Changes, & are like "WTF?"... Aftermath should be at the end of the book & it takes place 45 minutes after Changes ends. It's also told form Murphy's point of view.
