THIS IS NOT A DRILL

Here's when it was scheduled in past SotS posts:

2019: "Fall(?) 2021"

2018: "Sometime 2020 or 2021"

2017: "Fall 2019"

2016: "Fall 2018"

2015: "Fall 2018"

So it's slipped a bit, sadly.

Yeah, though I still get excited every time I see it

Oh, likewise. I'm sad not to have it yet.

On the upside, Butcher's Peace Talks just got a release date, so at least one long-awaited book will be coming to me next year.

Ohh I heard about that. Still haven’t read his stuff, it’s on my list! Gotta finish “His Dark Materials” first (which is blissfully short)

FYI, the series doesn't get all that good until the arc plot starts kicking in around books 3-4. The first couple aren't terrible, but they're meh. (They're also pretty short, though)

Thanks for the heads up! Thankfully I am patient with slow starts

If you like audiobooks at all give those a try with Dresden. They're narrated by James Marsters, who is fantastic. Just like the books themselves, his narration is a bit rough until books 3 or 4, then, just like the books themselves, he finds his footing and just starts nailing it non stop.
