NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - In the eighth book in The Iron Druid
Chronicles, two-thousand-year-old Druid Atticus O'Sullivan faces the
clan of vampires who have been bent on destroying him--including
Leif, his former best friend turned enemy.
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.
