Waiting On...Hottie McHotpants and HUNTED by Kevin Hearne

I know, I know. This one doesn't release until the end of June but I just couldn't help myself. I absolutely adore this series. Hottie McHotpants, his fabu talking dog and Granuaile, the girl whose name I can never spell without triple-checking...they all rock. And any story that has its characters running like hell (shades of the Doctor, FTW) is aces in my book.

As much as I like Gran, I'm happy that she's not on the cover with McHotpants. Atticus and his sword are more than enough for me (granted, I would like a bit more arm action...maybe a gratuitous below-the-belt shot...*sigh* never satisfied).

HUNTED (The Iron Druid Chronicles #6) by Kevin Hearne

Urban Fantasy

320 pages, paperback

Expected publication: June 25, 2013

Publisher: Del Rey

For a two-thousand-year-old Druid, Atticus O’Sullivan is a pretty fast runner. Good thing, because he’s being chased by not one but two goddesses of the hunt—Artemis and Diana—for messing with one of their own. Dodging their slings and arrows, Atticus, Granuaile, and his wolfhound Oberon are making a mad dash across modern-day Europe to seek help from a friend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. His usual magical option of shifting planes is blocked, so instead of playing hide-and-seek, the game plan is . . . run like hell.

Crashing the pantheon marathon is the Norse god Loki. Killing Atticus is the only loose end he needs to tie up before unleashing Ragnarok—AKA the Apocalypse. Atticus and Granuaile have to outfox the Olympians and contain the god of mischief if they want to go on living—and still have a world to live in.
