Fiercely loyal to Spire Albion, he has taken their side in the cold war with Spire Aurora, disrupting the enemy's shipping lines by attacking their cargo vessels.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 334
Atticus O’Sullivan, last of the Druids, lives peacefully in Arizona, running an occult bookshop and shape-shifting in his spare time to hunt with his Irish wolfhound. His neighbors and customers think that this handsome, tattooed Irish dude is about twenty-one years old - when in actuality, he’s twenty-one centuries old. Not to mention: He draws his power from the earth, possesses a sharp wit, and wields an even sharper magical sword known as Fragarach, the Answerer. Unfortunately, a very angry Celtic god wants that sword, and he’s hounded Atticus for centuries....

Story5 out of 5 stars 124
For someone who’s been alive for two thousand years, 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 wolfhound, Oberon, are making a mad dash across modern-day Europe to seek help from a friend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. His usual magical option of shifting planes is blocked, so instead of playing hide-and-seek, the game plan is . . . run like hell.

Story5 out of 5 stars 105
Cutting a deal with a trickster god rarely goes well for any human brave or foolish enough to try it, but Atticus doesn’t feel like he has a choice. With members of the Norse pantheon out for his blood, he can’t train his apprentice in peace, so he asks Coyote to help him fake his own death. The cost, however, might wind up being every bit as high as if he’d made no deal at all.

The downside to faking your own death is that people tend to get upset when they find out they’ve been had. In Atticus O’Sullivan’s case, they’re upset enough to come after him to make sure he dies for real this time. Yet he can’t remain in hiding anymore: He has to bind his apprentice, Granuaile, to the earth so that she can become the first new Druid in centuries.

I adore this series! Great book but...
great book with the introduction of some amazing characters. The only thing I didn't like where are some seriously stupid mistakes the main character made.

Magical adventure worth reading.
Harry has to juggle many elements to right wrongs and determine what he truly wants.
What can I say? It is another amazing magical thriller featuring the witty, sarcastic wizard, Harry. It is exciting, edge of your seat action with paranormal elements and an examination of humanity. It was so enjoyable, I can not wait until the next one.

Excellent story excellently read
The Dresden Files series continues to get better with this installment. Butcher continues to add interesting and engaging characters to keep the story fresh. Marsters gives another exceptional performance with different distinct voices for characters (with authentic accents) and even little touches like delivering dialogue as if his mouth is full when appropriate for the story. Will be picking up the next installment!

still a solid listen, but...
all in all still a good story from Jim and a good edition to the Dresden files, but for some reason I felt the Vampire and the shroud plot lines didn't mesh well, while I do understand their separation it still felt jarring being in the middle of a hunt for the shroud and then immediately going off to deal with Vampire stuff. or conversely, making progress with Vampire stuff and then being sucked into a shroud hunt.

an inspired addition to the Dresden Files series
every time I read these books they turn out more enjoyable and more Adventure filled than the last. The Dresden Files have quickly become one of my most treasured series, and this book truly shouldn't be missed by any fan of fantasy novels.
the narrator James Marsters is to me at this point IS Harry Dresden, he adds so much character to the story that I truly can't see wanting to experience these Mysteries without him.
