Review:This book was annoying. I really like this series, but Kevin Hearne's tendency to make Atticus and others get deep into pop culture intensified in this book, to a distinct fault. There we're too many of those references, which were just silly.
But that wasn't the main problem with this book. That problem was the decision to tell the story from three points of view, and to spend a third of the book telling an altogether different story. The parts from Owen's POV, in particular, are unneces... Read more
Review:As with all the Kevin Hearne novels, I downloaded this one from audible. However, this time I promptly returned it. I will have to find the actual book now because for whatever reason, Luke Daniels is not the narrator for this book. When your used to a specific narrator, it just doesn't work when they change the person readers are used to listening to. I love Kevin Hearne. He is an excellent story teller. While I am sure this story is on par with the others I don't understand why they didn't get... Read more
Review:I read on average 5-8 books a week and I wound up reading these 4 books in one weekend. I am so ready for the 5th one. It covers all of my interest including world religion, pop culture, nerd-ism, geek stuff, classical literature and animal lover. It appeals to the Renaissance Man in you.
Buy it you will not be disappointed. Read more
Review:This is the first book I've read by author Kevin Hearne, and I must admit that I struggled with this one.
The story is told through the eyes of the bard Fintan. A large group of bone giants has invaded, causing chaos and destruction. Throughout Fintan's telling of the events, the reader gets a picture of what the conflict was like. Numerous (too numerous, in my opinion) characters are introduced throughout the story, and I had a difficult time keeping track of who's who. I realize thi... Read more
Review:An interesting writing style and definitely not for the prudish, although the second book is even more raw. In spite of sections that made me uncomfortable, I purchased book two because the characters are interesting and I want to know how they develop as the series continues. Read more
Review:Another look at the development of Atticus and Granuaile as characters. Consistent with their characters in Kevin Hearne's main stories. Love seeing how their powers work and are developed and what they are thinking. Witches should watch out when dealing with nature. Make the right choice. :) Read more
Review:I've been a fan of this series since the beginning, as this is the last installment in the series, and I was not quite ready to face that, so I put off reading it. Now in some ways I wish I hadn't, while in others I wish I'd rather have not picked up this one at all. It's left me with mixed emotions, as I am wondering what comes after this, I still have more questions than answers. And I was not expecting the story to end where it did, yet at the same time I don't really see how else it could h... Read more
Review:This is a new author for me. He introduces a lot of characters and I really don't want to commit to 5 stars until I have all of them straight in my mind. Once I understand those interactions, then the stories should be better. Read more
Review:I didn't like this. I read about 50 pages and couldn't go further. It was too gory and too many illicit scenes, I mean the character had no loyalties. He slept around a lot and I didn't want to read about it! Read more
Review:The Grimiore of the Lamb is a thoroughly enjoyable short story of the Iron Druid. It grants the reader a glimpse into wonderful, sometimes scary, always entertaining world created by Kevin Hearne. Wish it wasn't so short. Read more
