For today‘s #Dungeon 🖤 prompt I had to go with the short story, Cuddle Dungeon from Besieged. This is a hilarious story about the Slavic God, Perun. If you have read The Iron Druid Chronicles then I highly suggest you read this 😆 I also highly suggest you read The Iron Druid Chronicles if you haven‘t 🙃 #SavvySettings 💚🍀 @KevinHearne

Before leaving Richmond yesterday, I stopped by @FountainBookstore for the first time. So 👏 much 👏 fun!!!!! I picked up The Bookshop of Yesterdays which has been on my #TBR for a few months, but I also grabbed a “blind date” book. Besieged looks fun and has received great Litsy reviews. All in all, I totally won yesterday. It made the HORRIBLE traffic home bearable.

ralexist I've been putting off reading this because it's the final book in the series and I don't want it to end! 6y
wanderinglynn @ralexist Me too! I love the Iron Druid series. 6y
Redy2trvl @ralexist @wanderinglynn Excited to give it a whirl! 6y

This was a great group of short stories (all new except for one), most of which tied together and led in nicely to the next book. I can‘t wait to get my hands on it! I particularly liked how a bunch tied together, but were told by different characters‘ POV. And dang you Morrigan for leaving us with that warning to end on.

suvata I love this series. Haven‘t gotten to this one yet. 6y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @suvata It really is a fun series, and most of these stories are set between the last one and the one coming out in 2018. 6y

Leniverse @CocoReads @MidnightBookGirl I like beards. But I prefer the hair of the guy at the front. Maybe persuade him to let that slightly unshaven look become a proper beard... Or just mess up flannel guy's hair style... 7y

This is a nice collection, but I don't think the short stories are as good as some of the other ones, particularly the cheese story. I think these stories don't fit into the time line of the book series as well, but I really enjoyed Owen's revelation about Atticus and how proud he is of him. I would give it 2.5/5 stars. Read it if you love the series, but don't judge the series by this collection

Loved it, though my anxiety is toast now lol. It was crazy packed and I was there for @KevinHearne whom I've already had the pleasure of taking a picture with, so I figured this would do so others could have their chance.

Really enjoyed Kevin Hearne's visit on Tuesday. And the new audio was a blast. He shared that the much beloved model for the series main character (left) is now under exclusive contract to do underwear modeling, so they had to use a photo from an old shoot for this cover, take a separate pic of the other character and then match up the lighting by digitally altering the photos. Interesting! #audiobook

I love the Iron Druid Chronicles series and this book of short stories is a good way to tide me over until the next full length novel is released. It's nice to have stories told front the viewpoints of Granuaile, Owen, and Perun, in addition to the ones with Atticus.

Starting this on audio today because Luke Daniels has the perfect Atticus voice (and all other IDC voices!!). Owen, my bear post-it holder, approves even thought it took me "fecking long enough!!" #audiobook

Got to hang out with Kevin Hearne last night at @FountainBookstore , drinking whiskey and talking about books and the truly awesome fans that came out for the kick off of his new book tour. He made sure every fan who waited in the heat and mass of people got their books signed and pictures taken. Such an awesome night full of (Druid) magic!

My son Liam and I had a fun time meeting Kevin Hearne at tonight's book release for Besieged. Also got a copy of his novel Staked (also from his Iron Druid Chronicles series). Also got his autograph for my copy of his Star Wars novel Heir to the Jedi. The crowd was great, too. #bookrelease #IronDruid #IronDruidChronicles #KevinHearne #StarWars

MidnightBookGirl The crowd was amazing! But I guess it makes sense, since Kevin and the books are so cool. 7y
BillBlume @ChasingOm another attendee was telling me that the audiobooks for this series are really well done. 7y
ChasingOm They are SO good. The narrator does voices for every character, so it's easy to tell who's speaking -- even Oberon! 😄🐺 7y

I know it's early but I'm rearranging my work schedule. Any Littens going? If you are let me know- maybe we can have a pre Litsy dinner!
