Wow. This book has a non-stop pace, for reasons that will be obvious to the reader but cannot be explained to others without spoilers. I'll just say “clear your calendar” because you'll not find ANY good stopping places.One of the things that truly impresses me is that [a:Kevin Hearne 4414255 Kevin Hearne http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1289238438p2/4414255.jpg] doesn't just show his characters doing amazing things, but shows them experiencing the consequences of their actions – some expected, some totally unexpected. I truly enjoy his views of archetypes and myth, especially coming from a character who walks around speaking to gods, having a beer with Jesus and throwing down with Thor.I'm so glad that I have [b:Tricked 12700306 Tricked (Iron Druid Chronicles, #4) Kevin Hearne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1324455119s/12700306.jpg 16669362] on hand, but I wish Trapped were out already! At least I have the extra [b:A Test of Mettle 13145815 A Test of Mettle Kevin Hearne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1323216768s/13145815.jpg 18323275] to read, too. I just can't get enough of Atticus.
Life has gotten hairy for Atticus and Oberon and it looks like things aren't going to get any easier for the Iron Druid as his story continues. A very enjoyable series. I got the opportunity to meet Kevin Hearne this weekend at Alamosa Books, in Albuquerque, NM. He's an amusing fellow and I'm looking forward to reading [b:Tricked 12700306 Tricked (Iron Druid Chronicles, #4) Kevin Hearne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1324455119s/12700306.jpg 16669362].
I really enjoy these books. They're just so much fun. That said, this is my least favorite of the series, so far. In the first two, Atticus wasn't looking for trouble, it came looking for him. This time around, he purposefully went seeking trouble, which diminishes him; to be fair the story deals with that very thing, and maybe in future books he'll be a slightly more deserving hero. Still it was fun, and the bacon latte scene is the proverbial cherry on top for me.
Another fabulous book by Kevin Hearne!!. This one had me very worried for Atticus though, with so many bad omens and stuff. I was on the edge of my seat throughout this book. Even on busy days, I still managed to read a few pages here and there because this series is just that good!
