I love his writing style, finding it: intelligent, well researched but easy to read. I'm becoming a big fan of Kevin Hearne’s stories. Hopefully the next book will be better and back to formula with the right amount of geeky humour back.Īn Epic Adventure With This Modern Day Druid This book lacked the satisfaction i got from the first two. We have stories about their past, and big serious fights were a lot of entities (people, supernatural, gods etc) are killed. We have gone from a light hearted series to a fairly serious story about the group ready to kill. Atticus leads a group to Asgard to slay try to slay Thor.

Once that was done i thought we would get back to the main thrust of the story - which we did - but it was not the story i was expecting. No introduction, just the start of the theft.

OK, we know from the last book that Atticus has promised to get some enchanted fruit. This book seemed very disjointed, from the very first chapter. The first two were extremely enjoyable, with a lot of humour and action and following a little formula. What the hell was going on with this book. Great series getting a little lost with this book If you would like to hear more, you will find the first chapter of book four at the end of this recording. This is book three of the Iron Druid Chronicles series. Despite multiple warnings and portents of dire consequences, Atticus and Leif journey to the Norse plain of Asgard, where they team up with a werewolf, a sorcerer, and an army of frost giants for an epic showdown against vicious Valkyries, angry gods, and the hammer-wielding Thunder Thug himself. There's a vampire turf war brewing, and Russian demon hunters who call themselves the Hammers of God are running rampant. But things are heating up in Atticus's home base of Tempe, Arizona. One survival strategy has worked for Atticus for more than two thousand years: stay away from the guy with the lightning bolts. After centuries, Viking vampire Leif Helgarson is ready to get his vengeance, and he's asked his friend Atticus O'Sullivan, the last of the Druids, to help take down this Norse nightmare. Thor, the Norse god of thunder, is worse than a blowhard and a bully - he's ruined countless lives and killed scores of innocents.
