Dice rolling was as simple as skulls or shields - beat the enemy's roll (allowing for handicaps) to defeat them and move on.

At first, it's all in black and white, when the colorization portion started, there was a collective gasp in the full theater. It was definitely reminiscent of The Wizard of Oz, in terms of the overall reveal.
The use of the actual veterans talking about life during the Great War were really interesting to hear, and though they used dozens of people, they were blended together seamlessly. I absolutely loved it, and can't wait until I can purchase it.

David McK (3508 KP) rated Christmas Eve in Books

I was unaware that, apparently, this had also been released previously, on Jim Butcher's own website, back even before Peace Talks (or book #16) was released.
it is set after Battle Ground - thankfully giving no spoilers but only dropping hints to what will transpire - with Harry Dresden, Chicago's only professional wizard, attempting to put together a bicycle for his daughter on Christmas Eve, while staying with Michael and Charity Carpenter.
A bit like Scrooge, he receives numerous supernatural visitors on that night (although for very different reasons than Scrooge did!), with the final visitor and the final portion of the story bringing a tear to the eyes.
