2,5/5

Butcher keeps raising the bar for Urban Fantasy, and Hearne just provides more of the same..
This series keeps getting more and more uninteresting, 90 % of the characters in the books are gods..
Not humans, but superhumans with awesome powers.. However all the gods seems stupid, immature, and petty (and not at all powerful compared to Atticus..)
It's not that i have a problem with the amount of respect Hearne shows for his subject matter (which is close to non-existing, but what do i care), it's just makes me not give a shit about anything that happens..

All the Norse gods fall over dead ? Who Cares..
Some horny, shit-for-brains wine-god is hunting Atticus again.. YAAAAWN ... why should i care ?
Oberon wants to be fed, and hunt squirrels.. Haha.. Year laughed about that in the first two books, now it's getting pretty old...


I like Hearnes humour, and at times i've enjoyed the iron druid a lot, but this is becoming more and more like a sitcom, where you dont care about anything that happens, but sit-by waiting patiently for the one-liners.. which is provided almost solely by Oberon..

I wish Hearne would scrap this series, and try his luck with something a bit more serious and substantial.. We need more good UF series..
