I so like these books and I might have a little crush on Atticus. The fun continues with a spiritual world I know far less about than the pantheons of other books. One of my favorite parts is the interaction of the elementals with the humans. As usual, Atticus gets himself out of trouble in the...
This was the first of Hearne's novellas I've read.I quite liked it. The beginning and end bits with Oberon & Granuaile were amusing and refreshing. I also liked the more developed role the Morrigan takes. The one thing preventing me from giving it 5 stars is that it felt like there was all this b...
This was a nice little read. Something to tide me over until the next Atticus book comes out. Atticus is contacted by someone who wants to buy the Grimoire of the Lamb. Atticus initially thinks it is just a book about recipes, but when the man shows up to negotiate for the book, Atticus pulls ...
Perhaps had I read this before beginning the series, I could have given it more stars. After it all, it involves gnomes and beer. As an intro to Atticus and Oberon, and as a teaser for what readers can expect from the novels, it's a good intro. But I found out about this short story after sloggin...
This is a short tale devoted to Granuaile, Atticus' apprentice. It demonstrates her growth as a both a character and a Druid apprentice. I read this as an add-on to Hammered". This may vary depending on the version of the novel you are reading. If "A Test of Mettle" is not included in your co...
Really excellent short story of Atticus and Oberon as they visit Egypt to retrieve a book that was stolen from Atticus.I love learning about the various deities of different locations. Normally Atticus deals with Greek and Roman Gods with a few Norse and Asian Gods tossed into the mix. This is ...
The second short story bundled with Kevin Hearne's 'Hounded' in which Atticus O'Sullivan and his dog Oberon encounter some witches up to no good (of course) while on a short vacation.Compared to the previous short story, this shows more the nature of Atticus connection to the land (he's a 2000+ y...
My rating system -1 star = awful all the way around. No point in even finishing it.2 stars = read out of morbid curiousity. Lots of errors. Way too short. Generally no depth, no creativity, no nothing. Want a red pen so can correct.3 stars = Average book. Fun read. Nothing too exciting, but worth...
