For a two-thousand-year-old Druid, Atticus O??Sullivan is a pretty fast runner. Good thing, because he??s being chased by not one but two goddesses of the hunt??Artemis and Diana??for messing with one of their own. Dodging their slings and arrows, Atticus, Granuaile, and his wolfhound Oberon are making a mad dash across modern-day Europe to seek help from a friend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. His usual magical option of shifting planes is blocked, so instead of playing hide-and-seek, the game plan is . . . run like hell.
Crashing the pantheon marathon is the Norse god Loki. Killing Atticus is the only loose end he needs to tie up before unleashing Ragnarok??AKA the Apocalypse. Atticus and Granuaile have to outfox the Olympians and contain the god of mischief if they want to go on living??and still have a world to live in.

Includes Kevin Hearne??s novella ??Two Ravens and One Crow? in the back of the book

Praise for Kevin Hearne
??It may be possible that Hearne and Atticus are the logical heir to Butcher and Dresden.???SFFWorld
??An exciting mix of comedy, action, and mythology . . . [Atticus] is one of the best main characters currently present in the urban fantasy genre.???Fantasy Book Critic, on Tricked
??Superb . . . eminently readable . . . plenty of quips and zap-pow-bang fighting.???Publishers Weekly (starred review), on Hounded

Praise for Hunted
??Hunted is the best by far! . . . Storytelling doesn??t get much better than this, folks. The author has caught lightning (pun intended) in a bottle and he keeps doing it again, and again. If you haven??t caught on to the joy that is the Iron Druid Chronicles, you should remedy that, post-haste.???My Bookish Ways
??Hunted is everything you??ve come to expect from an Iron Druid book, and then some. I give Hunted [a] five out of five.???Roqoo Depot
??A fun, action packed book that delivers some great sequences, and some superb narrative with some great humour.???The Founding Fields
??Hunted is filled with everything I love about the series. Snark runs rampant, action is non-stop, the world building is phenomenal, and the characters are ones that you would love to sit down and have a drink with.???Mad Hatter Reads
??Hunted is an adrenaline-filled read with tons of action, fantastic mythology and some real

A little different feel to this one - felt more like The Amazing Race. That's not a bad thing, as this story was pretty exciting and nearly non-stop action. Big changes in this book - bad, good and hmmm.... ( )

Þokkaleg fantasía um drúídann Atticus sem glímir sem fyrr við ýmsa guði margvíslegra trúarbragða. Helsti kostur sögunnar er að hún tekur sig ekkert of alvarlega og er með léttan húmor. ( )

I love this series, getting a little nervous now that I'm almost caught up. Well, the books are too good to space them out so off to get book 7 :)

Strongly recommend for folks who love magic, mythology, sarcasm in the face of death, all set in modern day times. ( )

This is one of those weird series that I thoroughly enjoy when I'm reading it, but can easily put off picking up the next book for long, long stretches of time. However, since this book fits a number of Halloween Bingo squares, it seemed like the perfect time to get further along.

Atticus is being hunted across Europe by Diana and Artemis for his perceived crimes against Bacchus in the previous book. All the pantheons have agreed to neither help nor hinder the chase and are using it as a form of entertainment. Interspersed throughout are random drop-ins by Loki, recently escaped from his eternal punishment and bat-sh*t crazy.

I like the way Hearne creates an overall story arch about how the road to hell can be paved with good intentions. Atticus' loyalty to his friends (good thing) results in the bringing about of Ragnorok (very bad thing), and now he's trying to atone for his sins.

It's a good read; fast paced, well written, and I like the characters. For me, though I never rave over them, the Iron Druid chronicles always offer up a solid, entertaining read.

I'm using this one for the Cryptozoology Square for Halloween Bingo 2018. ( )
