Shattered: The Iron Druid Chronicles, Book Seven | Kevin Hearne
15 posts | 83 read | 8 to read
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Dont miss Kevin Hearnes novella Grimoire of the Lamb in the back of the book! For nearly two thousand years, only one Druid has walked the EarthAtticus OSullivan, the Iron Druid, whose sharp wit and sharp sword have kept him alive as hes been pursued by a pantheon of hostile deities. Now hes got company. Atticuss apprentice Granuaile is at last a full Druid herself. Whats more, Atticus has defrosted an archdruid long ago frozen in time, a father figure (of sorts) who now goes by the modern equivalent of his old Irish name: Owen Kennedy. And Owen has some catching up to do. Atticus takes pleasure in the role reversal, as the student is now the teacher. Between busting Atticuss chops and trying to fathom a cell phone, Owen must also learn English. For Atticus, the jurys still out on whether the wily old coot will be an asset in the epic battle with Norse god Lokior merely a pain in the arse. But Atticus isnt the only one with daddy issues. Granuaile faces a great challenge: to exorcise a sorcerers spirit that is possessing her father in India. Even with the help of the witch Laksha, Granuaile may be facing a crushing defeat. As the trio of Druids deals with pestilence-spreading demons, bacon-loving yeti, fierce flying foxes, and frenzied Fae, theyre hoping that this time, threes a charm.Praise for Shattered Funny, razor-sharp . . .

Iron Druid Chronicle book 7. This series can be hit and miss but this book was one of the best, if not the best so far. I've enrolled to do uni next semester, even having paid my tuition already, but I'm glad to be having my summer break. Can't wait to go camping this weekend! Might rain so I cant take a book :(

1. It‘s over. Remediating kids for retaking the state test is my least favorite part of the school year.
2. One younger brother.
3. One grandma.
4. Mildly interested. I think it‘s fascinating but not into the research.

Anyone else go a little overboard with punctuality sometimes? I tend to arrive at work so early that I usually sit and read in my car in the parking lot for 10 to 15 minutes before I even go in the building!

wellreadredhead Same here! I‘m always early to anything 7y
danibolahood Me too! I always give myself a 20 minute buffer "just in case" which I rarely need so I spend a lot of time sitting in parking lots. 7y
LisaJo My mother used to say if you‘re 10 minutes early you‘re late. Not everything she taught me from childhood has stuck, but, that has. #AlwaysHaveABook 7y

“I forgot how good it feels to be rooted. And to be rooted is not the same thing at all as being tied down. To be rooted is to say, here I am nourished and here will I grow, for I have found a place where every sunrise shows me how to be more than what I was yesterday, and I need not wander to feel the wonder of my blessing. And when you are rooted, defending that space ceases to be an obligation or a duty and becomes more of a desire”#QuotsyDec17

BarbaraTheBibliophage This is a great one! 7y
merelybookish I love this! 7y

Continued love for this series on audiobook. The narrator kills it every time. It's become a 3 part narrative now that there are 3 druids. Atticus and Owen are awesome but Granuaile just tends to annoy me. Even with that, one of my favorite parts was when she got to hang out with the Yeti. That's right...there are Yeti in this installation. At times it seemed like too many threads to keep track of but even then it was still mighty good.

josie281 This last book will be bittersweet! 8y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa I love this series on audiobook too! So much fun! 8y

I ❤️ Owen. 🐻 it's Monday night so I'm sitting at gymnastics. More so hiding in a corner with my treats and loom while listening to Shattered. And yes, that's a back up book and Kindle just in case.....

One of my favourite animal sidekicks is
Oberon from the Iron Druid Chronicles 😊
I only see now that Shattered is a different edition than the others. But the newest one, Staked, has a completly different format and doesn't fit next to the others, so its ok for me.
What about you all? Do you have to buy all books in a series in the same edition or is that cool, but optional to you?

Seekingtardis Oberon for the win!!!! I buy my favorite books in multiple editions and I pick the prettiest in series, even if they don't match, which drives my hubby CRAZY! 😍😍🦄 8y
Bookworm54 I prefer them to match and get annoyed if the publishers change the format part way through a series (women of the Otherworld, and Mercy Thompson are 2 such series) but I don't go out of my way to make them match in these cases. But if I know I can get them to match, I will! ☺️ 8y
