sherpawhale 's review for:
Hounded
by Kevin Hearne
I really enjoyed this one! You think that I wouldn't have enjoyed it so much, considering how I've complained about the Dresden Files, and I've been not really making much progress on them at all. this is pretty similar, except instead of a wizard in Chicago it's a 2000 year old Irish Druid in Arizona. and he has a wolfhound that he's telepathically linked to. and I swear every woman is trying to get into the main characters pants.
you think that all of that together would mean that this wouldn't be such an enjoyable read for me. Maybe it was because the length is a little bit shorter so it's mainly just the good hard me to the store with no extra fat. it could be the telepathic link with the Wolfhound. It could be that the author just has a really strong sense of action and urgency. maybe it's because we don't really see too much of Druids as main characters, or at least I don't. but the main characters Cockiness was really believable to me and being over 2000 years old.
knocked off a star because urban fantasy isn't most groundbreaking thing ever. also the last little bit where the main character rewards his Wolfhound with five French poodles that are in heat. that seem to bring up some weird rape culture connotations. your mileage may vary. I guess it really depends on how you see dog breeding. but with the telepathic will found that is clearly extremely sentient, so since you Aunt that he likes to watch Genghis Khan documentaries, where is the element of consent? hard to say. I found it squicky. others may as well. It's like the very last paragraph, so if you skip that you may find nothing to complain about at all
