Review

Job Placement is a very short microfiction story set in the Dresden Files universe that's available to read for free on the author's website, but it contains spoilers for the Bigfoot novellas, particularly "Bigfoot on Campus" found in Brief Cases. The story falls between Skin Game and Peace Talks in the series chronology. It features the son of Harry's friend, River Shoulders, half-bigfoot Irwin, and his White Court vampire girlfriend, Connie, and is written from the first-person POV of Irwin. These two are deliriously happy and totally crazy about each other. Connie is nearly finished with her college degree and has received an offer of employment as a teacher at a school for supernatural children in Chicago. In between their passionate interludes, the pair discuss what this might mean for their future and take new steps in their lives and relationship. It was nice getting an update on Irwin and Connie. Overall, this was a really cute, little story that I very much enjoyed for its romantic overtones.
