The Dresden Files/Welcome to The Jungle

Welcome to the Jungle is a four-issue prequel miniseries written by Jim Butcher and illustrated by Ardian Syaf.

Chicago could hardly be described as a jungle. But Harry Dresden knows that within and under these familiar streets lie a multitude of dangerous creatures--some of them human. When he is called to investigate the brutal death of a security guard at the Lincoln Park Zoo, he finds himself teaming up with one of the local animal experts to find out who--or what--is willing to use black magic to stay on top of the food chain.
