Audiobook review: Shattered by Kevin Hearne Shattered opens with the exciting addition of Atticus’s arch-druid, Owen, fresh off one of the time islands and unaware of the millennia that have past. As Atticus and Oberon work to acclimate Owen to the twenty-first century, Granuaile takes her own Druidic journey, heading to India to meet up with Latcha […]
Audiobook review: Hunted by Kevin Hearne The opening of Hunted starts with a bang, and the pace of the story moves rather quickly throughout the book. Continuing the storyline from the previous book, Atticus, Granuaile, and Oberon are on the run. The book opens with some rather surprising news confessed by the Morgain to Atticus, causing both […]
Audiobook review: Trapped by Kevin Hearne Twelve years have past since the last book, and Granuaile has finished her Druidic apprenticeship. While looking for a safe place to bind her to Gaia, Atticus discovers that Loki is free and the Olympian pantheons are plotting his demise. It even appears that someone within the Tuatha Dé Danann is […]
Audiobook review: Tricked by Kevin Hearne NOTE: My review contains spoilers from Tricked and the previous three books in the series. Tricked opens with Atticus’s planned death so that he, Granuaile, and Oberon can move on and complete her training to become a Druid. However, Atticus must first fulfill a promise to help Coyote since Coyote literally […]
Audiobook review: Something Spectacular by Alexis Hall If pining for one’s best friend were a virtue, then Peggy Delancey would have been sainted by now—or whatever the non-religious equivalent might be. Unfortunately, being in love with someone who can’t love you back tends to put a strain on a person. Still, with some distance from Arabella Tarleton, […]
Audiobook review: Hammered by Kevin Hearne Having read the entire Iron Druid Chronicles before, this is my second time listening to Hammered. While I don’t give away any spoilers, I will note that my feelings about this one were definitely altered having listened to it and the entire series previously. That said, I actually enjoyed Hammered more […]
Audiobook review: Hexed by Kevin Hearne Starting my re-listen of Hexed, the second title in Mr. Hearne’s Iron Druid Chronicles, I realized I had the order of events wrong in my memory and enjoyed being “surprised” by what goes down in this one (I recalled it happened later in the series). The story expands Atticus’s world beyond […]
Audiobook review: Hounded by Kevin Hearne The Iron Druid Chronicles series follows the life of a 2,000+ year old Druid named Atticus O’Sullivan. Atticus is the only remaining Druid from a time long gone by, hiding out from Angus Og, the Celtic god of love and youth, who wants to kill Atticus for a perceived wrong-doing. Posing […]
Audiobook Review: Betrayal in Death by J.D. Robb Betrayal in Death is the twelfth book in the series and still has me wanting more. It wouldn’t be a murder case without it being connected to Roarke in some way. Instead of six degrees of Kevin Bacon, the In Death series is six degrees of Roarke. If […]
Audiobook review: Forever in Cape May by Jennifer Probst Taylor and Pierce have been the best of friends since high school, and one thing they know for certain is that they never want to have sex and ruin their special bond. It helps that neither is attracted to the other, and the couple times they kissed […]
Audiobook Review: Judgement in Death by J.D. Robb Judgement in Death has Lieutenant Eve Dallas working a murder case where cops are getting killed. The first body is found in a classy strip joint owned by no other than Roarke (he really is richer than god; he owns all the property it seems). But unlike other […]
Audiobook Review: Witness in Death by J.D. Robb Only Eve and Roarke can attend a play where a murder takes place making them witnesses to a real-life who did it. Witness in Death puts the couple in the middle of things while they try to figure out who switched the stage knife for a real knife. […]
Audiobook Review: Loyalty in Death by J.D. Robb Loyalty in Death hit close to home when you take in the fact it was released roughly two years before the 9/11 attack. Eve finds herself dealing with a terrorist group called “Cassandra” who are targeting New York and government landmarks. Some attacks are eerily close to history […]
Audiobook Review: Conspiracy in Death by J.D. Robb The gang is all present for another murder case. “Hold it. Hold it.” Her drumming fingers curled into fists. “Roarke? Damn it, damn it, damn it, can’t he stay out of anything?” Never fails when Eve is researching a case she finds a link to Roarke no matter […]
Audiobook review: Temptation on Ocean Drive by Jennifer Probst After losing the love of her life, Bella believes her life is complete without the love of a man; filled with being a mom, sister, and wedding planner. She’s always busy taking care of everyone else, never taking time for herself. “Beach Bachelor” of the year, Gabe, […]
