The not-published-here thing has kept me from getting past number 3. I just don't like reading real books these days and getting UK ebooks seems like much trouble.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Perhaps now is the time to finally read them all. After I stop time and read everything else I want to read.
I am P-C in this. Currently reading Bring Up The Bodies.

I just got the first Harry Dresden book from the library, so I imagine I'll be down that particular rabbit hole for a while.

Try Amazon Canada for no hassle UK books. Though of course when dealing with Amazon you are dealing with evil. Not sure that all UK books can be gotten there, but many not-published in the US are.

Aaaah yessssssss. I'm sure you've heard it before, but first few books are weak, they get way better, etc.

For my money, they start getting really good at Book 4 and progressively better after that, with pretty consistent awesomeness starting at Book 7.

I quite enjoyed the first few books. Plus they're essential to know what the heck is going on.

They're not bad, but they're like, "This? This is what everyone's excited about?"
It's actually cool to watch Jim Butcher improve as a writer over time.
