A Plague of Giants

5 stars

I loved Kevin Hearne's Iron Druid series, and when this book was released, I'm not sure what I read or heard, but I was turned off of it. When I heard of a third book in this series being released, I took a look another look at it.

I found it quite enjoyable, though it was a little rough to follow so many characters, each with their own widely varying cultures right out of the gate. The framing of the story (as told by a bard) was an interesting perspective, I liked it. I expected an epilogue, as I found the story ended quickly, and left a bunch of loose ends (though there are two more books..)
