Did anyone else notice that the runes in Harry’s magic circle were from the covers of Jim’s other fantasy series, The Codex Alera? Specially Furies of Calderon and Captain’s Fury.

[@AuroraXA]

I did not, just looked and yeah, that's cool. It's possible it's because Priscilla designed the map for Codex Alera and so she'd have those graphics and thought it would be neat to incorporate them. That's just a guess.

[@bunniesbunniesbunnie]

Haha I caught it and went "COOL TIE IN" at the top of my lungs. This whole video was just me screaming into outer space. All I've been doing is covering coronavirus as I write my own dinky little novels. I'm so excited. I'M SO EXCITED AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Butcher alluded to the fact that all his books are in the same universe during an interview by basically saying the exact opposite. :) Magic changes every few hundred years, don't you know?

[@DerekScottBland]

I asked him at a signing if we'd ever see a return to Alera, and he said only if he racks up impressive gambling debts. I told him to start gambling more.

[@alexivandenberg4452]

​@@smileydag Yeah, Go figure.

[@iilhares]

I'm going to go ahead and disagree with you there. I'm guessing they intend that first girl to be Molly, but she was kinda blonde before becoming the Winter Lady, so the dark eyebrows seem out of place since the power changed her hair color to white. Goober Dresden would not be my choice of actor for the role at all, especially with whatever the hell that accent is he's trying (and failing) to get past. The woman on the couch can only be Murphy, because Harry doesn't get cozy with many, and she's got a cast on her leg, but at least she does kinda have the look of an ex-cop.. Then there's who I can only presume is Lara, but I'm not accustom to her calling him 'Sir Knight', she generally calls him Wizard or Mr. Dresden, unless she's in a taunting mood. And what the F is with that choice for Ebeneezer? He's not terribly stout, and he's got a full fscking head of hair when it's been made clear in the books he's got a bald pate. Honestly, it's like whoever made this has no actual appreciation of the source material and was given some Cliff's notes to try and put this together.

[@iilhares]

a tertiary viewing makes it clear that was more likely Justine & Thomas, not Molly at the front. Still, my objections stand.

[@rjpoldfart]

All these years of waiting. Jim knew exactly when to release it. When the world's in a shit storm!!!! If we're gonna be quarantined, might as well have some awesome reading to do!!!!!!

[@RealPhuggly]

My two cents, I think Netflix could put out a awesome Dresden series. Especially if it was produced by people like the ones that put this trailer together. Just look at Daredevil, Punisher, Altered Carbon, etc... They’ve had more wins than loses with their series productions. Just start at book one, ten episodes to cover the content. With a few “Side Jobs” and “Brief Cases” type add ins to give it a fresh feel. I’d LOVE to see it.

[@bunniesbunniesbunnie]

@@agentchaos9332 I disagree. I don't think the books feel movie-y. There'd be too much scene jumping (I'm not snooting. The ability to lace scenes together when you do hop around is difficult to get right but Butcher nails it) and movies would feel too tightly bound. There's both not enough room and too much room at the same time. TV series can bend any way you need them to.

book trailers have been a thing for a while. most folks just don't take it to this length lmao

[@beverlyjones4343]

I'm on my 3rd re-read of the series. I'm currently on Cold Days. I can't wait to read the next books!

[@randallmxd.7787]

Welp, now I know when I'm taking my next PTO after July :D Thank you for the lovely birthday present!!

[@adragon707]

Who else wants to see this made into a full movie with the same cast??? o/

[@nicog639]

This is what I was expecting for a Dresden movie/tv series... I really hope it happens!

[@joelwatkins]

I'd love them to try another TV series or film series adaption, so long as they're faithful to the material this time, because the books are fantastic and have great potential, but the syfy series was so disapointing.

[@NILBOG13]

Not Carlos, Bad casting for Los.

[@josephbenson4413]

Not me... none of those people struck me as The One for the part. I felt a lack of polish in their look. That said, the only casting "choice" I've ever had is James Frain (Odin Reichenbach on Elementary, Theo Galavan on Gotham, Eric Renard on Grimm, Chess on The Cape, etc.). He does not fit the physical description in the book, but I'll be damned if he isn't the person I've "seen" since Marcone was introduced. I think he'd be brilliant,

[@marlonclark1338]

Who's Evanna?

[@Gray-soul_81]

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who caught this.

[@dantran160]

Maybe one of the people at the conference

[@chouser25]

According to Jim and Priscilla, she's one of the leaders of the Svartelves

[@UncensoredScion]

Love the trailer, brilliant direction and sort of perfect casting for Lara. I've watched it a few times but never to the end, brilliant post-credits scene and perfect

[@michaelputnam1558]

OMG... can we please get a movie... i know the tv show had challenges... but i just about wet my pants watching this trailer... great job!

[@Drkpassenger19]

Are these trailers something that's normally done? Feels so weird seeing all the characters with faces I didn't imagine.

[@jeh32]

No. There was an unofficial trailer for Skin Games. Then this one. That's it. I'm guessing this was done as a fan favor to thank those who have patiently waited for the book. Whether or not these will become more common, I have no idea.

[@MonicaTRodriguez]

@@jeh32 I agree. They're still rare enough that they're going to have amateur (as in, not paid, likely) actors and it's definitely not big budget. I'll eat it up all the same!

"Boy" Wait, that is NOT the Tall Man.

[@konungr567]

*Hoss -there fixed it

[@Sidragrosm]

Umm..? pretty sure that even the Tall Man wouldn't pick a fight w/Ebenezar McCoy... I mean, seriously..! that old dog doesn't play nice..! (unless of course he had one, or a hundred of those skyscraper sized Balls... which he'd need to even ~consider~ said "scuffle..!")

[@isleapyhunter7769]

@@Sidragrosm alright so yes that's ebenzar, but I have a feeling he might be all like "boy, you don't have to defy the council " I have a feeling there could be an actual fight coming between The white council and the good forces of Chicago, or everyone that Dredson trusts to be at his side, (including some who might join him from the white council, but from the trailer, probably not). This includes some faeries, mab, winter court fae, Murphy's group, the thing Dredson and his sister (?) Set up with, with the wican, accept it's all of them from everywhere. Most likely the battle will take place on the island. Michael, Murphy and the other knight will join in on the battle, as well as the new winter lady. Given to of winter are there, ( big maybe, ) than there will be lots of winter fae. Billy and the werewolves will be there, all of them. Of course, the intellectual creature from dredson and the fallen angel might play a part in this, and of course, the island creature will be a big help. Some of the white vampire court might help out, especially with muscle.

[@ivanjimenez8163]

@@isleapyhunter7769 You put a lot of effort here.

[@isleapyhunter7769]

@@ivanjimenez8163 maybe. It's just a theory. But looking at the trailer and the next title of the books, Battlegrounds... maybe something like a battle of Chicago will happen . And besides, I am pushing some of the alliances with Dredson a little bit. I'm telling you. Have you ever seen a TV series or book series with this many characters without having them all team up against something. Especially if they all don't trust one thing? Aka the white council? If the bomb does drop, I hope it is amazing

[@buzzdb66]

Omg 2 books? Between this and all the awesome games this year this is turning into the best year ive had in so long. Thank you Jim! Dresden files is my favorite book series of all time. Also this trailer needs to be made into a full show or movie. Shut up and take my money!

[@fredyamamoto7215]

I would so watch this! I could almost recognize every character before they spoke.

[@TheCrazyNette]

Them: Who’s Harry Dresden? Me: You’ve heard of Harry Potter, right? Them: Of course. Me: Well, Harry Dresden is who Harry Potter wants to be…when he grows up.

[@pattheplanter]

An ordinary potter makes ceramics that might sell in a thrift store. Dresden ceramics sell for thousands of dollars. The Harries are related in quality in the same way.

[@nikkidoodle92]

I need a list of the actors faces next to the characters they play so I can figure out the trailer a bit better, but this is awesome!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Got that Marcone tension/threat just right. He should be no real worry for Dresden at all as he is just a non-powere human, yet consistently Jim Butcher has me worrying for Dresden's life whenever they have an encounter. Reflected perfectly in this trailer. Nice one.

[@Priscellie]

Thank you!

Soooo now after reading Peace Talks...did I miss something or what? Cuz I absolutely do not remember a scene where Marcone and Harry are dressing around each other.

That scene (and the scene with Harry and Ramirez in the stairwell) are both from Battle Ground!

I'm so used to seeing Paul Blackthorne as Dresden that I didn't recognize the guy in the video at first. Blackthorne's looks exactly like I always saw Harry in my head. I'm excited for the book, though. It's been too long.

[@NerdyBrian]

Priscilla amazing job. WTH! We need this book now!

I'm going to do exactly the same with this book as I did with the last of the Gunslinger books. "I'm going to take my time with this, I'm going to take my time with this, I'm going to take my time with this, I'm not going to read it quickly, this is to be savoured, enjoyed......." 12 hours after I get it.....
