NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In the seventh book in The Iron Druid Chronicles, two-thousand-year-old Druid Atticus O’Sullivan and his apprentice Granuaile take on an ancient plague-summoning demon and confront a rebellion of the Fae in Tír na nóg.
“Funny, razor-sharp . . . plenty of action, humor, and mythology.”—Booklist (starred review)
Atticus’s apprentice Granuaile is at last a full Druid herself. What’s more, Atticus has defrosted an archdruid frozen in time long ago, 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 Atticus’s chops and trying to fathom a cell phone, Owen must also learn English. For Atticus, the jury’s still out on whether the wily old coot will be an asset in the epic battle with the
Norse god Loki—or merely a pain in the arse. But Atticus isn’t the only one with daddy issues. Granuaile faces a great challenge: to exorcise a sorcerer’s 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, they’re hoping that this time, three’s a charm.
“Uproariously entertaining in a way that [Kevin] Hearne is uniquely able to achieve . . . [Shattered] has the feeling of a new beginning for its hero and for the series.”—RT Book Reviews
“This series just gets bigger and better, and Shattered shows no signs of it slowing down.”—Vampire Book Club

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The thing about binding yourself with iron to help keep angry fey off you is that it tends to annoy them even more. Druid and action hero Atticus O'Sullivan seems to have a knack for annoying fey, and a few odd gods and goddesses as well. In this fast moving, kick-ass seventh Iron Druid Chronicles installment (following 2013's Hunted), Atticus is running from a very peeved Loki, while Fand of the Tuatha D Danann definitely doesn't like the iron binding. Now that Atticus's apprentice, Granuaile, and his recently reawakened Archdruid are helping him, it appears that the immortals are picking sides. The question is, will those who back Atticus outnumber those who'd like to see him pulverized? Hearne brings plenty of action and entertainment as the intrepid druids hop from Colorado to Japan to T r na n g, rounding up their partisans in preparation for an upcoming epic battle.
