  <itunes:subtitle>2020 saw the return of the Dresden Files in a big way thanks to the release of not one, but two books (but kinda one). So Your Generals have invited back their Summer Knight, Dickie, to talk about these latest offering from Jim Butcher.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;2020 has been crazy for everyone, including our favorite Wizard Detective Harry Dresden. After a long wait, two new books, Peace Talks and Battle Grounds, were dropped on us. Needing to geek about the latest from Jim Butcher, Your Generals have invited Dickie back to talk about the goings on. For Dresden, most of the supernatural world seems to be converging in his hometown, and despite calls for peace, war seems to be on the horizon. Also with news from Fantastic Beasts, Alex Trebek, and more!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Follow Dickie on Twitter: @TDicstorm&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Zac's Recommendation: &lt;a href="https://imagecomics.com/comics/releases/fairlady-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Fairlady (comic)&lt;/a&gt; by Brian Schirmer&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tyler's Recommendation: &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Vampire" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Mr. Vampire (movie)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dickie's Recommendation: &lt;a href="https://www.comixology.com/Jupiter-Jet-2/digital-comic/620972" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt; Jupiter Jet #2 (comic)&lt;/a&gt; by Jason Inman&lt;/p&gt;
