Review Roundup

Peace Talks by Jim Butcher showcases Butcher's trademark blend of action and supernatural intrigue that fans of the Dresden Files series appreciate. However, some readers felt the plot was slower and more disjointed compared to previous installments. Character development remains strong, but this book seems to serve more as a buildup for future events.
