cj_jones 's review for:

Hounded by Kevin Hearne
2.0

The protagonist of this story is probably very popular at renne faire, but he is not for me. There were points where he used his powers just to be a jerk, and he was keen to keep reminding me how awesome he was. Which may of course be exactly what to expect from a Celtic hero. There were points where the dialogue either came across as either "The Lucky Charms guy" level of stereotype or just words that humans would not arrange in that particular order. Admittedly, I was reading the book aloud and that tends to put a lot of stress on dialogue.
This series came recommended to me because I like the Dresden Files and the Urban Shaman books, and I can see why this would seem like a good bet. I'm sorry it wasn't.
