Publisher's Summary

In the ninth installment in Kevin Hearne’s New York Times bestselling Iron Druid Chronicles, the ancient gods are still wreaking havoc today in this hilarious, action-packed collection of original short stories featuring Atticus O’Sullivan.

In ancient Egypt, Atticus agrees to raid a secret chamber underneath the library of Alexandria, dodging deadly traps, only to learn that on-site security includes two members of the Egyptian pantheon.

At a Kansas carnival, fun and games turn to murder and mayhem, thanks to soul-snatching demons and flesh-craving ghouls luring visitors into an all-too-real house of horrors.

In olde England, striking up a friendship with William Shakespeare lands both Atticus and the Bard in boiling hot water with a trio of infamous witches.

During the Gold Rush, the avatar of greed himself turns the streets of San Francisco red with blood and upsets the elemental Sequoia. Atticus may have to fight fire with fire if he’s going to restore balance.

More, you say? Indeed there is—including bogeymen, vampire hordes, wrathful wraiths, and even a journey to the realm of the dead. Prepare to be besieged with ten tantalizing tales—not to be missed, never to be forgotten.

Don’t miss any of The Iron Druid Chronicles:
Hounded | Hexed | Hammered | Tricked | Trapped | Hunted | Shattered | Staked | Scourged | Besieged

What the critics say

“[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

More please

My son and I have devoured everything Iron Druid Chronicles and I fear that I may go into Oberon withdrawal. Luke Daniel's does an amazing job of narration and the story is fun and engaging, generating the occasional full out guffaw from me. Thanks Kevin & Luke for fabulous entertainment.

Kevin + Luke = The Best Audio Book Duo

I love this book series so much! I started consuming it in paperback but ALSO purchased the audiobook. In my opinion - the audiobook does it way better. It was so easy to fall in love with the hound! #Audible1
