Iron Druid Chronicles Book Five
By Kevin Hearne
Narrated by Luke Daniels
After twelve years of training
Granuaile is finally ready to become a full-fledged druid. The only problem is
Granuaile and Atticus must travel to the base of Mount Olympus so that he can
bind her to the earth and finish the ritual. The problem being the Roman God
Bacchus has sworn to take his revenge on Atticus. Bacchus is not the only one
who is out for Atticus’ blood though, Loki the God of Mischief, An Ancient
Vampire, and a group of Dark Elves are all on the hunt to kill the druid before
he can complete the task.
I was actually sent an advanced copy of
this book for review, but about ten percent through I knew I had to use one of
my precious audible credits and get the audio book. Luke Daniels has done an
amazing job with this audio series and it has by far become my favorite to
listen to. The story itself is so much fun, from the beginning Atticus is
thrown into another instance where his mouth has brought doom upon his head. With
excellent comedic timing both by Kevin Hearne and through the narration of Luke
Daniels along with the fast paced action this is a great read. If you are a fan
of any mythology Kevin Hearne has you covered this entire series covers ancient
Gods from Norse to Christian each with their own unique personality that the
author has brought to life in a remarkable way and Luke Daniels furthers this
with his dramatization. The only thing I didn’t like was that Luke Daniels
changed the voice of Atticus’ mentor whom he frequently has arguments with
inside his mind, this book he wasn’t as high pitched and sounded much more
serious than he has in the previous books, not bad just not as funny. This is
by far one of the best audio book series and one of the best story lines I have
come across I cannot wait to see where Kevin Hearne will take us next.
