Product Description
When the supernatural world spins out of control, when the police can’t handle what goes bump in the night, when monsters come screaming out of nightmares and into the mean streets, there’s just one man to call: Harry Dresden, the only professional wizard in the Chicago phone book. A police consultant and private investigator, Dresden has to walk the dangerous line between the world of night and the light of day.
Now Harry Dresden is investigating a brutal mauling at the Lincoln Park Zoo that has left a security guard dead and many questions unanswered. As an investigator of the supernatural, he senses that there’s more to this case than a simple animal attack, and as Dresden searches for clues to figure out who is really behind the crime, he finds himself next on the victim list, and being hunted by creatures that won’t leave much more than a stain if they catch him.
Written exclusively for comics by Jim Butcher, The Dresden Files: Welcome to the Jungle is a brand-new story that’s sure to enchant readers with a blend of gripping mystery and fantastic adventure.

 Joke of a Book November 17, 2008

This is a joke of a book. If I had known what type of a "comic" book this was I would NEVER have purchased it! This book should be labled and put into the comic section. I buy books to READ and not to look at the pictures!
Graphic Novel? November 17, 2008

I wish that the words "graphic novel" had been more prominent in the info. It would have saved me this purchase.
 More Harry Dresden November 13, 2008

All of the Harry Dresden books have been great reads. Hope there will be many more in the offing.
Don't let the bad reviews fool you! November 13, 2008

Don't let the negative reviews fool you, Welcome to the Jungle is a great graphic novel. It was kind of short but the story was interesting and the artwork was very nice. In my opinion this is a must have for fans of the Dresden series. I don't normally leave reviews but this was a nice book. It pisses me off that it's rated so low because a bunch of morons gave it one star because they ordered it without reading the information page and were upset when it turned out to be a graphic novel.
 Short but Sweet November 11, 2008

When I first opened this tiny book I was amazed, the illustrations in this full color book are shockingly beautiful. As much as I love Jim Butcher as an author, he does need to work on his writing in a graphic novel scenario. Anyone who has read the Dresden Files or the Codex Alera knows that Butcher is very detailed about everything, but in a fun and exciting way. He needs to, for the graphic novel series, work on using the illustrations to convey some of that detail instead of narrating the entire book. Overall, AMAZING, just like everything Butcher writes.
