Creator Commentary from JimButcher: "The greatest frustration about writing the Dresden Files isall the stories I come up with that are too small or too straightforward towrite into a novel. One of the great pleasures I''ve had as a writer is gettingthe opportunity to tell some of those stories in a short-story format, and ingraphic novels like this one! War Cry is one of the stories I alwayswanted to tell but never got the chance to in the context of the novels, and I''mextremely pleased with how well it''s coming out."
