Series: Iron Druid
Unchained from fate, the Norse gods Loki and Hel are ready to unleash Ragnarok, a.k.a. the Apocalypse, upon the earth. They've made allies on the darker side of many pantheons, and there's a globe-spanning battle brewing that ancient Druid Atticus O'Sullivan will be hard-pressed to survive, much less win. Granuaile MacTiernan must join immortals Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen in a fight against the Yama Kings in Taiwan, but she discovers that the stakes are much higher than she thought.

Meanwhile, Archdruid Owen Kennedy must put out both literal and metaphorical fires from Bavaria to Peru to keep the world safe for his apprentices and the future of Druidry.

And Atticus recruits the aid of a tyromancer, an Indian witch, and a trickster god in hopes that they'll give him just enough leverage to both save Gaia and see another sunrise. There is a hound named Oberon who deserves a snack, after all.

Reviews for Scourged (#9 Iron Druid)

Praise for The Iron Druid Chronicles [Kevin] Hearne is a terrific storyteller with a great snarky wit. . . . Neil Gaiman's American Gods meets Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden. -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
