Description
About the Book
Atticus O'Sullivan has had cause to mistrust witches in his storied past, but he's willing to live and let live with the Sisters of the Three Auroras, a legendary local coven, even going so far as to sign a non-aggression treaty with them. But that treaty is tested immediately when a deadly new coven sweeps into town seeking to take over, along with some Bacchants from Las Vegas and a fallen angel who's decided to snack on high school students like they were trail mix. It's more than Atticus can handle alone and he must enlist the trickster Coyote, the headhopping abilities of the witch Laksha Kulesekaran, and his neighbor's illegal arsenal if he wants to keep the city safe from diabolical takeover. He must also exchange favors with his vampire attorney, Leif Helgarson, in a deal that might prove to be the worst of his long life--for Leif doesn't want to be paid by the hour. To defeat the mortal hexes of this new coven and keep his apprentice--and his city--safe, Atticus must think fast, make promises, keep his sword handy, and hope he'll survive to fight another day.Book Synopsis

Review Quotes
Praise for The Iron Druid Chronicles "[Kevin] Hearne is a terrific storyteller with a great snarky wit."--SFFWorld "[The Iron Druid books] are clever, fast-paced and a good escape."--Boing Boing
"Hearne understands the two main necessities of good fantasy stories: for all the wisecracks and action, he never loses sight of delivering a sense of wonder to his readers, and he understands that magic use always comes with a price. Highly recommended."--The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction "Superb . . . plenty of quips and zap-pow-bang fighting."--Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Celtic mythology and an ancient Druid with modern attitude mix it up in the Arizona desert in this witty new fantasy series."--Kelly Meding, author of Chimera "[Atticus is] a strong modern hero with a long history and the wit to survive in the twenty-first century. . . . A snappy narrative voice . . . a savvy urban fantasy adventure."--Library Journal "A page-turning and often laugh-out-loud funny caper through a mix of the modern and the mythic."--Ari Marmell, author of The Warlord's Legacy "Outrageously fun."--The Plain Dealer "Kevin Hearne breathes new life into old myths, creating a world both eerily familiar and startlingly original."--Nicole Peeler, author of Tempest Rising
