Frases célebres de Jim Butcher

“Tengo lo que puede considerarse una actitud muy anticuada y chovinista hacia las mujeres. Me gusta tratarlas como señoras: abrirles la puerta, invitarlas a cenar cuando tenemos una cita, llevarles flores, retirarles el asiento y todo eso. Si tuviese una mejor opinión de mí mismo, lo llamaría caballerosidad.”

Jim Butcher libro Fool Moon

Fool Moon

“Y así, caminé a través de un paisaje espectral plagado de calaveras, a pesar de la tormenta que se avecinaba, hacia una casa llena de poder maligno que latía con una fuerza mística feroz y salvaje. Avancé para enfrentarme a un adversario asesino que tenía todas las ventajas, que estaba preparado y mientras que yo estaba armado con nada más que mi propia destreza, mi ingenio y mi experiencia.
¿Tengo un trabajo genial o no?”

Jim Butcher

“«Ya te lo dije» preventivos —señalé—. Ahora sí que lo he visto todo.”

Jim Butcher libro Summer Knight

Summer Knight

“Me alejé de la casa y caminé hacia el lago. Hacía viento, pero estaba despejado. Era una noche algo fresca. Los altos y viejos árboles crujían y gemían bajo el viento. Todavía era demasiado pronto para que los mosquitos empezaran a hacer de las suyas. La luna, en lo alto, estaba en creciente, casi llena, con alguna nube esporádica que pasaba por delante como un velo transparente.
Era una noche perfecta para atrapar hadas.”

Contexto: Molly Carpenter: Wrote the Laws of Magic, founded the White Council, was custodian of one of the Swords and established a stronghold for the Council, too. He must have been something else.

Jim Butcher libro Skin Game

Fuente: Skin Game

“Harry Dresden: There was a sound of impact, a raspy, dry scream, and the vampire went down hard. It lay on the ground like a butterfly pinned to a card, arms and legs thrashing uselessly. Its chest and collarbone had been crushed. By an entire frozen turkey. A twenty-pounder. The plucked bird must have fallen from an airplane overhead, doubtlessly manipulated by the curse. By the time it got to the ground, the turkey had already reached its terminal velocity, and was still hard as a brick. The drumsticks poked up above the vampire's crushed chest, their ends wrapped in red tinfoil. The vampire gasped and writhed a little more. The timer popped out of the turkey. Everyone stopped to blink at that for a second. I mean, come on. Impaled by a guided frozen turkey missile. Even by the standards of the quasi-immortal creatures of the night, that ain't something you see twice. "For my next trick," I panted into the startled silence, "anvils."”
