About this listen
Atticus O'Sullivan, last of the Druids, doesn't care much for witches. Still, he's about to make nice with the local coven by signing a mutually beneficial nonaggression treaty - when suddenly the witch population in modern-day Tempe, Arizona, quadruples overnight. And the new girls are not just bad, they're badasses with a dark history on the German side of World War II.
With a fallen angel feasting on local high school students, a horde of Bacchants blowing in from Vegas with their special brand of deadly decadence and a dangerously sexy Celtic goddess of fire vying for his attention, Atticus is having trouble scheduling the witch hunt. But aided by his magical sword, his neighbor's rocket-propelled grenade launcher, and his vampire attorney, Atticus is ready to sweep the town and show the witchy women they picked the wrong Druid to hex.
This is book two of the Iron Druid Chronicles. If you would like to hear more, you'll find the first chapter of book three at the end of this recording.

good performance and story moves along well
I thoroughly enjoyed this - narrator is perfect for the tale and plot moves along at a decent pace with great flashes of humour (sometimes laugh out loud). Starting next in series now having listened to first two books back to back; a big compliment as I can't normally do this because I find many authors feel repetitious if I do. Would recommend this book.

Book 2 just as great as book 1
If you enjoyed the first book then definitely carry on. This series only seems to get better.

Really entertaining
This is another really fascinating story from mr. Hearne. I would, without take any story or line out of the book, recommend this.
Thanks to Christopher for his vivid enthusiasm in making this audiobook, and for making my time off so entertaining!

light hearted fantasy
Enjoyable escapism. Well read and gripping. I love the banter with the dog. Learnt a lot about different pantheons of God's, Irish, Norse and eastern religion.

A light-hearted and enjoyable listen
Story – 4/5
It has been a while since I listened to the first Iron Druid audiobook, and I am not really sure why – it is a very fun series. As the headline says, a very light-hearted and enjoyable listen. The lightness does mean that you never worry for the characters during battles, which is potentially enhanced further by the narration style, but that is fine - as the world and characters are rich with background and humour.
As far as urban fantasy goes, I think Butcher’s Dresden Files beats this due to having more depth, seriousness when it needs it, and I think the wit is a lot sharper. If however you are looking for a good, lighter alternative having already listened to Dresden, then I would recommend this.
Performance – 4/5
Christopher Ragland overall did a very good job. There were a few questionable accents when they were non-American, but it was infrequent and didn’t detract from my enjoyment. His characters each have their own voice, making them immediately recognisable, and he enhanced the light-hearted nature and humour very well. You might argue that he does the latter part too much though, as there was never really a sense of danger in the big battle at the end for atticus, but I think 4 stars is a fair rating for him.
Overall – 4/5
