Trapped: The Iron Druid Chronicles, Book Five

I really love this series, and I do believe that the only series our there with as much humor, wit and action is the Dresden Series by Butcher. However, this offering is not the strongest, and frankly I kept checking the cover to see if it was a novella. This is just far too short to be a novel, and not enough happens. The entire book consists of two very similar raid action sequences. What's really missing is the internal struggle, which were evident in the first few books. This drama of battling immortal foes seems to just disappear, and the solutions to the battles seem to just happen. I will continue to read the series, as the initial offerings were so good, and the characters are excellent. But I really hope the next one is much better.

I love the iron druid chronicles. This book was right there with the rest of them. Would have been 5 stars, but it felt like it was over too soon.

Hearne is my new favorite author. Lots of action. Great story. No graphic sex - which by the way is so overrated and slows a story down so much and is completely unnecessary. Grawn ya wale kicks butt - awesome. I like that Atticus is not invincible and that he has to use his brains to get out of stuff. But he's not too "vincible" either - a nice balance. I hate hero's who aren't really hero's; and a hero that is unstoppable is boring.
