My feels for this haven’t changed since the first time reading it. Nothing impressive and doesn’t seem to have much purpose. 

First Read: 3.0⭐️

I think my biggest issue with this story is that we never got a clear motive as to why the sorcerer was doing what he was and saying Chicago was his domain to protect. It seemed like it was just an opportunity to work along side Marcone in a story while also showing how Molly has been improving her skills. Overall, not my favorite really and I don’t feel like I really added anything to Marco plot of the Dresden files like the other short stories and graphic novels have in the past.
