Publisher's Summary
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In the final book in The Iron Druid Chronicles, two-thousand-year-old Druid Atticus O’Sullivan confronts the Norse gods Loki and Hel to stop the impending apocalypse, while Granuaile and Owen work to secure the future of Druidry.
“[Kevin] Hearne draws his Iron Druid Chronicles to a pitch-perfect close in this dizzy, world-hopping adventure. But amidst the battles and bargaining that go into saving the world, there is also an enormous amount of heart.”—RT Book Reviews
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 hardpressed to survive, much less win.
Granuaile MacTiernan must join immortals Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen in a fight against the Yama Kings in Taiwan, and 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.

Story
When a Druid lives as long as Atticus does, he’s bound to run afoul of a few vampires—make that legions of them. Even his former friend and legal counsel turned out to be a bloodsucking backstabber. Now the toothy troublemakers—led by power-mad pain-in-the-neck Theophilus—are no longer content to live undead and let live. Atticus needs to make a point—and drive it into a vampire’s heart.

Story
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.

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.

Story
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.

Thanks to his relationship with the ancient Druid Atticus O'Sullivan, Oberon the Irish wolfhound knows trouble when he smells it - and furthermore, he knows he can handle it. When he discovers that a prizewinning poodle has been abducted in Eugene, Oregon, he learns that it's part of a rash of hound abductions all over the Pacific Northwest. Since the police aren't too worried about dogs they assume have run away, Oberon knows it's up to him to track down those hounds and reunite them with their humans. For justice! And gravy!

When he’s not vanquishing villainous gods or dodging demons, 2,000-year-old Druid Atticus O’Sullivan can be found behind the counter of Third Eye Books and Herbs in modern-day Tempe, Arizona, literally minding his own business. But when an evil sorcerer - and amateur shoplifter - snatches an ancient Egyptian tome of black magic, The Grimoire of the Lamb, Atticus is not sheepish about pursuing him to the ends of the earth...or at least to the Land of the Pharaohs.

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....

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

Loved It
I think this is the first time an ending has ever truly surprised me, and yet it feels so right. The author stayed true to the characters and their choices and gave us the ending we deserved, not the one we may have wanted. And, as always, Luke Daniels was stellar and had me laughing out loud like a crazy person. This series will always have a special place in my library.

A Mixed Ending...
I will precursor this by saying I will keep this spoiler free and focus entirely on the feeling/writing construction. That being said...
I love this series and it is definitely in my top three of all time for novel series I enjoy. I would still recommend it to anyone, despite what I am about to say about this novel in particular. So bare with me.
This latest installment was a bit of a letdown for me. I expected an epic ending, full of emotion, anger, hurt, grief but with some hope too. I did get some epic and most of the rest... but the novel was a lot of detours, inconsequential sections that made it hard to care about certain characters, or certain scenarios, and I got an overall feeling of it deconstructing all that has been established, built, and assumed to be true in the previous books. There were moments of great emotion but unfortunately there were far more moments of frustration that pulled me out of the story. These moments were because I felt the characters behaved out-of-character for what they have been established to be in the previous novels. I don't like when a series builds characters and then turns around and gives me something else. Unfortunately this novel does that.
So all that being said, this series is still phenomenal and well worth the read. The writing style alone makes it worth it, but the characters, humour and atmosphere are all worthy of every moment of time put into devouring the story. Luke Daniels adds his voice to it here on audible, and as far as I am concerned, I will always hear his voice as that of Atticus. He really does immerse the listener in the story. I hope everyone gets a chance to go through this tale with Atticus, Granuaile, and Owen.

Fabulous story, fabulous audiobook!
I got into these books based off of a recommendation by a friend and I am soooooo glad that I read them all!!! Super fun storyline, great character developments. The writing style is fantastic (although the switching between first-person-past and first-person-present was a bit jarring at first), and the story is captivating.
Luke Daniels does an amazing job narrating these books, and Scourged was no exception. It's always so much more enjoyable an experience when the narrator does VOICES for the characters!!! Luke did an incredible job bringing Kevin Hearne's characters to life. I strongly recommend the entire series to anyone who is a fan of fantasy fiction. Great reads!!!

Kevin Hearne finishes this series as strongly as he began it. I was hooked from the first book to the last. The story keeps you hooked throughout the entire book, I couldn't put it on pause! Luke Daniels is such a great narrator that he made the book sound like it was written specifically for him to read! Highly recommend this series! #Audible1
