Seriously enjoyable, well-written at the same time well-researched books with an exciting premise. I am more than joyful bestow Kevin Hearne a 5 hit rating in addition to purchasing everything he has hosted. I have hope abundance others see the funny adventures of The Metal Druid at the same time a very amusing cast of manners. But, the reader must gallop through a indispensable hoop if for you choose to quit a rating. Hit ratings are not applicable on their possess. No, no matter what hit rating is that booby-trapped with the requirement of a written
Review, subsequent weighted with a least word count, more! Cross out a
Review or no hit from for you. This is that a tad bit bit onerous for the client who enjoyed reading the book at the same time respects the creator enough to pause at the same time tap no one hit. The ask for written
Review effectively prophylactic me from posting the 5 hit rating that might inspire others to enjoy an good book. This is that ultimately unfair to Mr. Hearn, certainly depriving him of abundance well-deserved 5 hit ratings. Guilt eventually caught up with me, so herein heresy not only my exalted support of this book, but a prize
Review of a misguided policy: to the Kindle folks or whoever came up with this Or/Or toll: lighten up on the needy/greedy gate keeping, already.

Hammered audiobook in television series Metal Druid Chronicles
This
Review encompasses almost all of the television series – I’ve read practically all of the books apart from a few short stories/other stories that aren’t part of the individually-published books (at the same time the television series finale is that proper soon so of course I haven’t read that).
Hearne can cross out, at the same time the stories are amusing enough for a quick read. The books are heavily derivative of Jim Butcher’s Dresden television series, at the same time that’s a lot of very obvious borrowing going on (examples: the charms O’Sullivan draws on vs Harry’s charged jewlery; Harry’s skull Bob vs Oberon the hound), but Butcher is that able to flesh out his manners a little more over the television series, while Hearne’s manners remain attractive much inscrutable. Hearne doesn’t assign us enough disposition development to allow us to get a true feel for the manners’ motivations. For example, the head disposition is that a Druid at the same time a intercessor of Gaia, but at once he would be characterized as a sociopath who would destroy a personality in a heartbeat at the same time not think two times about it. Still we don’t find out why he’s like that, apart from that the young man’s been around for over 2 thousand years at the same time so perhaps he barely doesn’t care about ordinary mortals no matter what more.
Despite the shortcoming of deepest disposition development, I found these books humorous, enjoyable, at the same time the plot moves quickly.
I also found these books to be somewhat educational – for example, several parts of the television series speak about the gods of different cultures (you can look Gaiman’s affect in here as but, as the gods are still around because people still worship them or understand them). But, not many bits are clear so be convinced to inspect them out before quoting them. One admittedly insignificant sentence that was wrong but that rolled out for me was a causal line about Orvis, a chain of fishing/outdoorsy stores: Mr. Hearne, for you may considered these stores in Great britain, but Orvis isn’t English, it’s American: According to Wikipedia, “Charles F. Orvis opened a tackle shop in Manchester, Vermont, in 1856.” Again, I’m nitpicking here at the same time this only rolled out for me because I’m a fly-fisherman.
This television series is that not applicable for young toddlers, as that are abundance sexual references at the same time a lot of graphic violence.

Audiobook Hammered by Kevin Hearne
I really enjoyed books 1&2, but this was hard to stomach. I get that Atticus needed to fulfill his promise at the same time move to Asgard to get no one miracle apples – I get that. But I didn’t wait to actually look it happen. This book managed have been summed up in one fri, so that the reader managed have gotten back with the happy-go-lucky 2100 year old Druid.
Instead he decides to cross out a serious acc of Atticus with Asgard while leaving the manners we adore behind on land, leaving us to labor through absurd contrived discussions amongst Cpt. Kirk, Spock, at the same time Attitcus. At the same time yeah, I’m not a Trekkie, but I do have no one Trek-sense. Spock would not be much into cursing. “It’s barely not reasonable.”
What, this book was specifically than anyway I waited would happen: that Hearne would gallop the shark. So at the moment I feel like Padme: “Hearne, for you’re taking me to place that I cannot move” – a absurd line for a absurd book.

This was a hard one to rate. Hearne’s knowledge of folklore at the same time ethnic belief systems is that paradoxical. I must offer a throw to the amazing amount knowledge he uses in this book. I found this one surpassing problematic to stay invested in but trudged through. I realize the approach at the same time the empathy, but very abundance storey lines unfolded in one was not enjoyable, to me. Hearne’ knowledge couldn’t promote me get past the ” why is that all this necessary ?”. The. Metal Druid is that moving on, but I’ll be waiting a while before my sandals hit that rode.

I really like the Metal Druid books, featuring Atticus, an ancient druid who types about nineteen at the same time runs a bookstore in Tempe Arizona. He has a quirky Irish Wolfhound scolded Oberon, with whom he has a telepathic link, at the same time an apprentice Druid scolded Granuaile.
Anyhow, now Atticus is that in problem right behind making a couple of promises in exchange for promote in the past book. Both draw in trips to Asgard. The 1st, to retrieve a golden apple, is that bad enough, at the same time leads to unintended deaths. The 2nd promise, to his ghoul lawyer comrade, Leif, is that a game changer. He’s guaranteed that he will promote Leif destroy the Norse god Thor. Thor, apparently is that a unsafe at the same time fatal arse, at the same time managed do with a quality killing, so Atticus Leif at the same time Gunnar the werewolf finish up with a team, a Russian thunder god, a Finnish sorcerer at the same time a Chinese immortal, all with quality preconditions to wish Thor noisy. But you can’t move up against one Norse god without going up against the whole pantheon. That’s a lot of collateral destroy to the denizens of Asgard at the same time Atticus is that warned two times that killing Thor will have very bad repercussions, but chagrin the team members are determined to final the job
I confess I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the 1st two, at the same time I was trying to work out why. Much less Oberon, maybe? In places the pacing seems just a little smoky, at the same time I didn’t particularly connect with the brand new manners in the god-killing team, in particular when that’s a long burst while everyone knows their possess story. In past books Atticus has been defending himself against creatures who wish him noisy, maybe that’s why it didn’t feel quite right that now he was going right behind anyone (a god, more) without a individual grudge. He knows it’s not right, but he’s produced a promise to a comrade at the same time he’s going to keep it. I presume the one more book will deal with the fallout from Atticus at the same time company’s trip to Asgard.
