   Something from the Nightside (tekijä: Simon R. Green) (amberwitch, plutoempress, lookitisheef, DovSherman)

   amberwitch: A tough P.I. with a number of convenient talents making a living and trying to uncover the secrets of his own origin in the magical Nightside of London.

   plutoempress: similar style, though i (and this is my opinion) find john taylor funnier than harry dresden.

   lookitisheef: Jim Butcher and Simon R. Green both have created great supernatural male-lead detective series. I think they provide a nice balance to the girls-kick-butt series out there...don't get me wrong, I love the work of Kim Harrison and Laurell K. Hamilton (to name a couple), but it's nice to see that authors can create plausible male leads in the supernatural fiction world, too.… (lisätietoja)

   The Man With The Golden Torc (tekijä: Simon R. Green) (dmacmillan, Scottneumann)

   dmacmillan: Similar in tone to Butcher's Dresden Files but bigger in scope and with perhaps an even wilder storyline.

   Libriomancer (tekijä: Jim C. Hines) (kqueue)

   kqueue: I found many similarities between Isaac Vainio and Harry Dresden. Both are cynical, powerful, heroes with a dark sense of humor, who are on the fringes of their official organization but are called in to save the day. Both books feature many mythical creatures, and have a good versus evil theme in a fast-paced adventure.… (lisätietoja)

    Magic Bites (tekijä: Ilona Andrews) (Strict31)

    Strict31: Lotta "urban fantasy" books out there. So many that simply stick to a formula. I was jonesin' hard for some Dresden when I stumbled across the Kate Daniels series. Like Dresden, it's a rare gem among a drawer filled with common stones. Kate doesn't spend her time on her back or pining for super-handsome creatures of the night. And she's not just an action surrogate for a male hero. There is action and there is romance. But it all fits. The series was not created to serve the needs of a genre, but rather, the needs of the character. It's a different type of storyline than Dresden, because the world has been irrevocably changed by the existence of magic. But a lot of the things I go to Dresden to get are also found here.… (lisätietoja)

    gluestick: Brothers Cal & Niko Leandros battle monsters while on the run from Auphe.Doesn't help that Cal is half Auphe.

    Thicker Than Water (Felix Castor) (tekijä: Mike Carey) (BeckyJG)

    The Devil You Know (tekijä: Mike Carey) (amberwitch, TheLibraryhag)

    amberwitch: Same noir feel, more interesting first person narrator. Lovely London descriptions.

    A Madness of Angels: Or, the Resurrection of Matthew Swift (tekijä: Kate Griffin) (amberwitch, questionablepotato, mysterymax)

    mysterymax: Anyone who enjoys the Dresden File series would, I think enjoy the Matthew Swift books.

    Sweet Silver Blues (tekijä: Glen Cook) (MyriadBooks)

    John Constantine, Hellblazer: Dangerous Habits (tekijä: Garth Ennis) (Cynara)

    Cynara: I think Harry Dresden may be a distant, nicer relation of Hellblazer's John Constantine.

    Monster (tekijä: A. Lee Martinez) (smammers)

    smammers: If you enjoy urban fantasy with a healthy dose of sarcastic humor thrown in, you'll love these books!
