Ghost Story by Jim Butcher

This book finds Harry dead--but his work is not done. He must face the same kind of problems he usually does (that is to say, insoluble ones) without the ability to practice his magic as usual. I really like the way Harry both learns to live with his limitations and the way that he learns about choices and his own moral abilities in the face of some scary (and overpowering) foes and allies. This series continues to grow in an organic and impressive way--things that happened earlier fit into a larger picture seamlessly. Can't wait to see what happens next!
