James Marsters Reads 'The Dresden Files'
Actor to Complete Narrating Audio Series
James Marsters has quite the fan following as an actor but also an equally loyal following as a reader of audio books. The latter fans will be delighted to know that he has signed on to read the remaining six Harry Dresden novels by Jim Butcher. These titles include Death Masks, Blood Rites, Dead Beat, Proven Guilty, White Night, and Turn Coat (to be released simultaneously with the hardcover due out in April 2009).
Death Masks will be released when Roc re-releases the book as a hardcover in November 2009. Blood Rites and Dead Beat can be expected when the hardcover reissue of Blood Rites is released in July 2010.
Butcher's series about Dresden, freelance wizrd/private investigator has been running for a decade or so now and was adapted as a one season Sci Fi Channel series. The Dabel Brothers are also producing Dresden comic books and graphic novels, the firstof which will be reviewed here on Wednesday.
As a performer, he will next be seen in 2009’s Dragonball, the adaptation of the anime Dragonball Z.

James is wonderful !! I read Fool Moon first, then listened to the audio book. James is an awesome performer. He does the accents and mannerisms of the characters, bringing the books to life. I've now read and listened to all the books, trying to be patient waiting for the next story.

Technically, isn't the movie an adaptation of Dragonball, not Dragonball Z?

I myself really like the Dresden Files as well as the audio books. My 91 year old mother says James Marsters has the most lovely voice she has ever heard! It is sad that she is nearly blind because he is also easy on the eyes. We are looking forward to the next offering of this series.
