I love anything Bob says!
After listening to James Marsters, I hear Bob's disembodied voice very clearly when I'm reading.
I especially like "Woo woo, who's the babe?" it always makes me smile!
Very naughty spirit/skull!

Bottom line - Bob just rocks! tough job for a spirit in a skull, you know?
hmmmmm --
Here's the thing - I was totally taken by the first paragraph when I heard James read it --
"I heard the mailman approach my office door; half an hour earlier than usual. He didn't sound right, his footsteps fell more heavily, jauntily, and he whistled. A new guy..."
LOVE THAT!
Mac is great too - the guy at Harry's fave hangout - he just grunts and slaps food on the bar -- he's such a great character -

Me, I love the last few lines of the first book. Talk about going out with a bang!
"My name is Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresdon. Conjure by it at your own risk. When things get strange,when what goes bump in the night flicks on the lights, when no one else can help you. give me a call. I'm in the book."

Re: Favorite Lines - Audio or hardcopy
One of my favorite lines is the entire paragraph on Morgan in Storm Front
Quote:Have you ever been approached by a grim-looking man, carrying a naked sword with a blade about ten miles long in his hand, in the middle of the night beneath the stars on the shores of Lake Michigan? If you have, seek professional help. If you have not, then believe you me, it can scare the bejeezus out of you.
Love that line. But my favorite line - the line that always makes me laugh no matter how many times i read it is in the first chapter of Storm Front during Harry's phone call with Monica Sells.
Quote:Monica: "Is this, um, Harry Dresden? The, ah, wizard?"
Harry: (thoughts) No. It's Harry Dresden the, ah, lizard. Harry the wizard is one door down.
