"HOUNDED"
Atticus O'Sullivan, last of the Druids, lives peacefully in Arizona, running an occult bookshop and shape-shifting in his spare time to hunt with his Irish wolfhound. His neighbors and customers think that this handsome, tattooed Irish dude is about twenty-one years old--when in actuality, he's twenty-one "centuries" old. Not to mention: He draws his power from the earth, possesses a sharp wit, and wields an even sharper magical sword known as Fragarach, the Answerer.
Unfortunately, a very angry Celtic god wants that sword, and he's hounded Atticus for centuries. Now the determined deity has tracked him down, and Atticus will need all his power--plus the help of a seductive goddess of death, his vampire and werewolf team of attorneys, a sexy bartender possessed by a Hindu witch, and some good old-fashioned luck of the Irish--to kick some Celtic arse and deliver himself from evil.

I listened to the audiobook, which I do not recommend.What I liked: 1. The general story was fine.2. Very much enjoyed Leif. What I didn't like:1. The audiobook narrator was GARBAGE. I don't know why he couldn't be bothered to pronounce any of the Irish words properly, but it took me right out of the story. His voices for various characters were ridiculous, why did Oberon sound like Scooby Do? He did an Irish accent for the widow, but not for any of the Irish gods/goddesses? 2. The dialogue seemed stilted, particularly from Atticus. He's meant to be blending into American society, but no one on earth talks the way he does.3. I found it really repetitive, like Atticus is CONSTANTLY reminding us that he draws his power from the Earth. We get it, dude.
