Going from Oberon's Meaty Mysteries to Blood Pudding was rough. Even though she grew on me, Granuaile is not my favorite character to spend time with. But this novelette is one of these stories that are the most connected story to the main story-line, because it truly feels like a cut scene or chapter. It's … Continue reading Blood Pudding | Kevin Hearne

Cuddle Dungeon | Kevin Hearne
Having Perun telling this story was a surprise :). The title alone put so many ideas on my head, and I wasn't that far off.

The first few sentence of Staked is a prime example of that, alluding both to Tarantino's movie, directorial style, and foot fetish. Whenever Oberon shows up it's … Continue reading Staked | Kevin Hearne

Hunted (The Iron Druids Chronicles #6) by Kevin Hearne published 25 June 2013For a two-thousand-year-old Druid, Atticus O’Sullivan is a pretty fast runner. Good thing, because he’s being chased by not one but two goddesses of the hunt—Artemis and Diana—for messing with one of their own. Dodging their slings and arrows, Atticus, Granuaile, and his … Continue reading Hunted | Kevin Hearne
