The Iron Druid Chronicles

The Iron Druid Chronicles introduces Atticus O’Sullivan, the last of the ancient druids, a two-thousand-year-old survivor pursued by vengeful Irish gods. They demand the enchanted sword he stole centuries ago. After millennia on the run, Atticus is tired. Now managing an occult bookshop in Tempe, Arizona, he doesn't want to uproot his life again, hoping to finally end the conflict—preferably while still enjoying his fish and chips.

His eclectic allies include The Morrigan, Brighid of the Fae, a bloodsucking vampire lawyer, and his loyal, opinionated Irish wolfhound. Yet, he faces formidable enemies: the god Aenghus Óg, a coven of witches, the local police, and the firepower of hell at Aenghus’s command. Atticus will need all the luck of the Irish and more to survive this modern mythological showdown.

In the second novel of the New York Times bestselling Iron Druid Chronicles, two thousand-year-old Atticus O’Sullivan faces multiple supernatural threats. Though he maintains a non-aggression treaty with the local witches, a deadly new coven arrives, intent on seizing control of the city with potent hexes. Adding to the chaos, Bacchants from Las Vegas and a ravenous fallen angel, preying on high school students, escalate the danger.

To protect his apprentice and the city, Atticus must forge an unlikely alliance. He enlists the trickster Coyote, the headhopping witch Laksha Kulesekaran, and even his neighbor's arsenal. His most perilous deal is with his vampire attorney, Leif Helgarson, who demands a steep price: a favor that could be the worst of Atticus’s long life. With his sword ready, Atticus must think fast and make difficult promises to survive this diabolical takeover.

In Hammered, the third novel of the bestselling Iron Druid Chronicles, two-thousand-year-old Atticus O’Sullivan faces his greatest challenge yet: taking down the Norse god of thunder, Thor. Despite warnings from wise deities, Atticus feels compelled to act because Thor has wronged countless individuals, and the ancient Druid has made unbreakable promises. His quest will lead him from Midgard into the dangerous Norse planes, creating ripples across the nine realms.

But Thor isn’t Atticus's only problem. He must also navigate a brewing vampire turf war, evade zealous mystic hunters known as the Hammers of God, and contend with werewolves determined to prevent their leader from reaching Valhalla. To survive Mjöllnir’s wrath and achieve his impossible task, Atticus will need every ounce of his legendary Irish luck and the aid of powerful allies.

For over two millennia, Druid Atticus O’Sullivan has relied on his Celtic cunning to survive. When vengeful Norse thunder gods hunt him for payback, Atticus enlists the aid of the Navajo trickster god Coyote to stage his own death, convincing his enemies he’s been obliterated in the Arizona desert. However, Coyote’s mischievous nature means Atticus is soon double-crossed, finding himself battling bloodthirsty desert shapeshifters known as skinwalkers instead. Just as he grapples with this new duplicity, an unexpected betrayal emerges, threatening his very existence. If Atticus manages to survive this ordeal, he vows to never be tricked again—a promise he'll surely find hard to keep in this thrilling installment of the Iron Druid Chronicles.

After twelve years of secret training, Druid Atticus O’Sullivan prepares to bind his apprentice, Granuaile, to the earth, aiming to double the world's Druid population. However, on the eve of this crucial ritual, the world, long believing him dead, shockingly discovers Atticus is alive and well—a revelation many would prefer remained buried.

Left with no alternative, Atticus, accompanied by his loyal Irish wolfhound Oberon and Granuaile, journeys to the base of Mount Olympus. There, the Roman god Bacchus eagerly awaits his sworn revenge. Yet, Bacchus must contend with a queue of other formidable adversaries: an ancient vampire, a dangerous band of dark elves, and a cunning old god of mischief, all united by a singular, deadly objective: to kill the Druid.

Atticus O’Sullivan, a two-thousand-year-old Druid, is on the run across modern-day Europe with his apprentice Granuaile and wolfhound Oberon. He’s being relentlessly pursued by two goddesses of the hunt, Artemis and Diana, angered by his interference with one of their own. With his usual magical escape routes blocked, Atticus’s only option is to run like hell, seeking aid from a friend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. Their desperate flight becomes even more complicated with the arrival of the Norse god Loki, who seeks to kill Atticus to tie up a loose end before unleashing Ragnarok—the Apocalypse. To survive and prevent the world’s end, Atticus and Granuaile must outsmart the Olympians and contain the mischievous god before it’s too late.

In Shattered, the seventh book of The Iron Druid Chronicles, Druid Atticus O’Sullivan faces immense challenges. His apprentice, Granuaile, is now a full Druid, and Atticus has defrosted an ancient archdruid, Owen Kennedy, a father figure needing to catch up on two millennia. Atticus, now the teacher, enjoys Owen’s struggles to adapt to the modern world, but wonders if this wily coot will be an asset in their epic battle against the Norse god Loki or merely a pain. Meanwhile, Granuaile must journey to India to exorcise a sorcerer’s spirit possessing her father, a daunting task even with witch Laksha's help. The trio also confronts plague-summoning demons, a Fae rebellion in Tír na nóg, bacon-loving yeti, and fierce flying foxes. With three powerful Druids united, they hope that this time, "three’s a charm" against the mounting forces of chaos.

In the eighth book of The Iron Druid Chronicles, two-thousand-year-old Druid Atticus O’Sullivan confronts a vampire clan bent on his destruction, including his former friend-turned-enemy, Leif. Led by the power-mad Theophilus, the vampires escalate their war, compelling Atticus to make a definitive stand and eliminate his nemesis.

Meanwhile, his allies face personal battles. Archdruid Owen Kennedy deals with troll trouble, and Granuaile seeks to escape Norse god Loki's mark and divination, leading her to confront Slavic nightmares. Atticus's global pursuit of his nemesis leads him to Rome, the Eternal City. But victory against Theophilus may demand the ultimate price: losing an old friend.
