Fool Moon follows the adventures of Harry Dresden, a professional wizard and private investigator, who gets involved in a series of murders that seem to be connected to werewolves. The novel is set in Chicago, six months after the events of the first book, Storm Front. Dresden has to deal with different types of werewolves, a hostile police force, a gang war, and his own personal demons.
The novel is a fast-paced and action-packed thriller that combines elements of mystery, horror, and humor. The author, Jim Butcher, creates a rich and immersive world where magic and supernatural creatures coexist with modern technology and society. The characters are well-developed and complex, especially Dresden, who is a flawed but likable hero. The plot is clever and unpredictable, with twists and turns that keep the reader engaged and entertained.
The reviewers praised the novel for its witty and engaging writing style, its creative and original use of werewolf lore, and its balance of suspense, fantasy, and comedy. They also appreciated the character development and the growth of Dresden as a person and a wizard. Some of the reviewers noted that the novel had some issues, such as the repetition of information, the excessive violence and gore, and the lack of female characters. However, they agreed that these flaws did not detract from the overall enjoyment of the novel.
Fool Moon is a highly recommended read for fans of urban fantasy, paranormal mystery, and action-adventure. It is a standalone novel, but it also builds on the previous book and sets up the next one. It is a part of a long-running and popular series that has been adapted into a TV show, a graphic novel, and a role-playing game.
