#7 The Armored Saint by Myke Cole

This new fantasy series starts out with a setting that appears to be one thing but turns on its head by the end. Heloise questions the way things are done and why the Church controls their lives so much. When at first glance in the story it seems the Church is cruel and capricious the reader does find out just why the Church fights demons and keeps life so regimented in that fight. A good start to the series and with the ending it had I can’t wait to get the next book.

#8 Jim Butcher's The Dresden Files: Dog Men by Jim Butcher, Mark Powers, Diego Galindo

This story has Harry working on a case with Listen-to-Winds far away from Chicago. Harry is working on a hair trigger and maybe trying to help Listen-to-Winds solve a case down in the South might help Harry out as well. I do have to say that this story arc has lots of nods to previous graphic novels in the series and it does help with setting the tone of these collections as a full story universe. There is more going on in the town than first appears and for a nice change of pace the local police seem glad to have some help that understand what is going on. A decent story that wraps up nicely by the end. Not sure where the next graphic novel story will take Harry but they are an entertaining interlude to the novels.
