Hounded: Book 1 

Dust jacket and frontispiece by Galen Dara.

Fans of tongue-in-cheek humor, fast dialogue, and Oberon the Wolfhound will be pleased to hear Subterranean Press is publishing a limited edition of Hounded, Book One of the Iron Druid Chronicles, featuring Atticus O'Sullivan the 2,000-year-old Druid and his wolfhound Oberon in their first adventure.  

Atticus O’Sullivan has been running for more than two thousand years and he’s tired of it. The Irish gods who want to kill him are after an enchanted sword he stole in a first-century battle, and when they find him managing an occult bookshop in Tempe, Arizona, the last of the ancient Druids doesn’t want to uproot his life again; he just wants everything to end one way or the other, but preferably the way in which he can continue to enjoy fish and chips.

He does have some small hope of survival: The Morrigan is on his side, and so is Brighid, First Among the Fae. His lawyer is literally a bloodsucking vampire, and he has a loyal Irish wolfhound with opinions about poodles.

But Aenghus Óg has recruited Fir Bolgs, a former king of the Tuatha Dé Danann, and a coven of witches to help bring down the Druid, and the local police are cooperating as well. On top of all that, Aenghus has a direct line to the firepower of hell. Atticus will need all the luck of the Irish and more if he’s going to stay alive. 

Hexed: Book 2

Atticus O’Sullivan has had cause to mistrust witches in his storied past, but he’s willing to live and let live with the Sisters of the Three Auroras, even going so far as to sign a non-aggression treaty with them. But that treaty is tested immediately when a deadly new coven sweeps into town seeking to take over, along with some Bacchants from Las Vegas and a fallen angel who’s decided to snack on high school students like they were trail mix.

It’s more than Atticus can handle alone and he must enlist the aid of the trickster Coyote, the head-hopping abilities of Laksha Kulesekaran, and his neighbor’s illegal arsenal if he wants to keep the city safe from diabolical takeover. He must also exchange favors with his vampire attorney, Leif Helgarson, in a deal that might prove to be the worst of his long life. For Leif doesn’t want to be paid by the hour. And the Morrigan, too, wants something unusual in exchange for her aid. To defeat the mortal hexes of this new coven and keep his apprentice—and his city—safe, Atticus must think fast, make promises, and keep his sword handy, and hope he’ll survive to fight another day.

The third installment in the Iron Druid Chronicles.

About the Book:

When the naysayers say “Nay, don’t mess with the man who wields the lightning bolts,” ninety-nine times out of a hundred the ancient druid Atticus O’Sullivan would nod along and agree. But when multiple people convince him that Thor, the Norse god of thunder, needs to get got, he thinks maybe this is the one time he should ignore the advice of the wise—even if those sages include deities who tend not to be wrong about very much. 

Because Thor has undeniably done somebody wrong—many somebodies, in fact, and Atticus doesn’t think he can simply dismiss it as someone else’s problem. Plus he has made some promises that he doesn’t feel he can break, promises that will take him away from Midgard to the planes of the Norse, where his actions will cause ripples throughout the Nine Realms.

On top of that there’s a turf war brewing amongst the vampires, a zealous group of mystic hunters called the Hammers of God running rampant, and a pack of werewolves who very much don’t wish to see their leader taken off to Valhalla.

In order to avoid being the nail underneath the hammer Mjollnir, Atticus will need every ounce of Irish luck he can muster, and maybe the help of a few deities in his corner.

Tricked: Book 4

About the Book:

Cutting a deal with a trickster god rarely goes well for any human brave or foolish enough to try it, but Druid Atticus O'Sullivan doesn't feel like he has a choice. He can't train his apprentice in peace with members of the Norse pantheon out for his blood, so he asks Coyote to help him fake his death. The cost, however, might wind up being every bit as high as if he'd made no deal at all. There are things hiding in the Arizona desert that don't want any company, and Coyote makes sure they know Atticus has arrived. And there's the hound of Hel, Garm, who's terribly difficult to shake and not at all convinced that Atticus is dead. 

But being tricked by a trickster is par for the course: It's the betrayal from someone he thought was a friend that shakes Atticus to the core and places his life in jeopardy. The real trick, he discovers, might be surviving his own faked death.

Trapped: Book 5

Dust jacket illustration and frontispiece by Galen Dara.

About the Book:

The downside to faking your own death is that people tend to get upset when they find out they’ve been had. In Atticus O’Sullivan’s case, they’re upset enough to come after him to make sure he dies for real this time. But he can’t remain in hiding anymore: He has to bind his apprentice, Granuaile, to the earth so that she can become the first new Druid in centuries. 

But the Roman god Bacchus wants mortal revenge for a slight against him, so he proceeds to act on the principle that Atticus should hate his life until it can be ended.

Members of the Norse pantheon aren’t particularly pleased with Atticus either—especially one that had languished in darkness, slowly going mad, now free to work his mischief again.   

On top of that, an ancient vampire who’d like to remove Atticus and Granuaile as threats to his kind is working on his own plan for their destruction. 

Forced to work at the base of Mount Olympus, Atticus and Granuaile must survive the three-month process of her binding and escape the many traps set for them. It’s fortunate that they have Oberon the Irish Wolfhound on their side—but is one good dog going to be enough to see them through it?

Hunted: Book 6

Dust jacket illusrration by Galen Dara.

We’re pleased to present the signed limited edition of the sixth installment in the Iron Druid Chronicles.

Nothing emphasizes the need for good cardio so much as being tracked by two goddesses of the hunt and their hounds. Having barely escaped from Mount Olympus and blocked from shifting planes, Atticus, Granuaile, and Oberon must run across Europe in hopes of an assist from a friend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. They’re going to need plenty of help, since Artemis and Diana and other Olympians really want them dead.

The ancient leader of the world’s vampires will take a shot at them too if he can, because Druids are able to unbind vampires on sight and he can’t abide such a threat to their undead existence. But there’s another threat on the horizon: Loki, the Norse god of mischief, is convinced that Atticus’s continued existence is the only thing preventing him from unleashing Ragnarok upon the world, so he’d like Atticus to be discontinued as soon as possible. Now an already fraught run looks like a gauntlet of mortal peril. 

The Druids and their wolfhound will need to outwit the Olympians together and somehow neutralize Loki if they want to survive—and still have a world to survive in.

Shattered: Book 7

Dust jacket and frontispiece by Galen Dara.

We’re pleased to present the signed limited edition of the seventh installment in the Iron Druid Chronicles.

Atticus O’Sullivan’s apprentice, Granuaile, is at last a full Druid herself. What’s more, Atticus has defrosted an archdruid frozen in time long ago, a father figure (of sorts) who now goes by the modern equivalent of his old Irish name: Owen Kennedy. And Owen has some catching up to do.

Atticus takes pleasure in the role reversal, as the student is now the teacher. Between busting Atticus’s chops and trying to fathom a cell phone, Owen must also learn English. For Atticus, the jury’s still out on whether the wily old coot will be an asset in the epic battle with the Norse god Loki—or merely a pain in the arse.

But Atticus isn’t the only one with daddy issues. Granuaile faces a great challenge: to exorcise a sorcerer’s spirit that is possessing her father in India. Even with the help of the witch Laksha, Granuaile may be facing a crushing defeat.

As the trio of Druids deals with pestilence-spreading demons, bacon-loving yeti, fierce flying foxes, and frenzied Fae, they’re hoping that this time, three’s a charm.

Staked - Book 8

Dust jacket and frontispiece by Galen Dara.

We’re pleased to present the signed limited edition of the eighth installment in the Iron Druid Chronicles.

When a Druid lives as long as Atticus does, he’s bound to run afoul of a few vampires—make that legions of them. Even his former friend and legal counsel turned out to be a bloodsucking backstabber. Now the toothy troublemakers—led by power-mad pain-in-the-neck Theophilus—are no longer content to live undead and let live. Atticus needs to make a point—and drive it into a vampire’s heart.

As always, Atticus wouldn’t mind a little backup. But his allies have problems of their own. Ornery archdruid Owen Kennedy is having a wee bit of troll trouble: Turns out when you stiff a troll, it’s not water under the bridge. Meanwhile, Granuaile is desperate to free herself of the Norse god Loki’s mark and elude his powers of divination—a quest that will bring her face-to-face with several Slavic nightmares.

As Atticus globe-trots to stop his vampire nemesis, the journey leads to Rome. What better place to end an immortal than the Eternal City? But poetic justice won’t come without a price: In order to defeat Theophilus, Atticus may have to lose an old friend.
