I just can't say enough good things about this book. It's well-plotted. There's an excellent cast of characters, and they develop in interesting ways. The world-building is wonderfully rich. I have the same incredible, bubbly feeling that I did when reading the very first Dresden Files novel by Jim Butcher–gimme more! Fortunately, there are already three more books available in the series ([b:Hexed 9595650 Hexed (Iron Druid Chronicles, #2) Kevin Hearne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1320539847s/9595650.jpg 14482685], [b:Hammered 9595620 Hammered (Iron Druid Chronicles, #3) Kevin Hearne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1311632977s/9595620.jpg 14482655] and [b:Tricked 12700306 Tricked (Iron Druid Chronicles, #4) Kevin Hearne http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1324455119s/12700306.jpg 16669362]) with a fifth (Trapped) on the way.
I read it all, which is rare for me, but if felt too short to deserve even a 2 star. Everything is shallow. The pacing was ok, the writing subpar. The world based on pantheon of different mythologies was just name dropping, as were also the inclusion of vampires and werewolves.
I wanted to enjoy this, I like immortal characters, but nothing in the protagonist makes us think he is actually 2100 years old.
Great potential ruined by the main character being basically invincible; ruining any sort of drama.
