The Iron Druid Chronicles is a series of urban fantasy novels, novellas, novelettes and short stories, written by Kevin Hearne and published by Del Rey Books. [1] All the books, including short stories, have recorded audiobooks narrated by Luke Daniels (for the US) and Christopher Ragland (for the UK market.)
The series is set in our world—the first two books are set in Tempe, Arizona—where supernatural creatures exist. These include witches, vampires, werewolves, demons, elementals, as well as various deities from many mythologies. The entire series is told in the first-person point of view. In the beginning, the narrative is described exclusively by ancient druid Atticus O'Sullivan (aka. Siodhachan O Suileabhain), owner of the occult bookshop Third Eye Books and Herbs, as he becomes embroiled in the day-to-day struggle of gods, goddesses, and other supernatural creatures.
Granuaile and Owen Kennedy (arch druid to Atticus) narrate later chapters after they become a larger part of the story.
Literary reception for the series has been mostly positive [15] with Publishers Weekly covering the first three books in the series. [16] [17] [18]
