Storm Front was first published April 1st, 2000, which makes this year The Dresden Files’ 20th anniversary! To honor that milestone and to thank the phenomenal fans who got us there, we will be posting “Dresden Drops” on jim-butcher. com every Tuesday this year. Dresden Drops will feature never-before-seen artwork, microfiction, interviews, sample chapters for Peace Talks, contests, and other tasty tidbits throughout 2020. The first piece of microfiction, “Mike,” is set between White Night and Small Favor–shortly after the graphic novel Wild Card. A visit to the mechanic. Spoiler Level: LOW.
