Synopsis
The series is set in our world (the first couple of books are set in Tempe, Arizona) where supernatural creatures exist, such as 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 and in the beginning is told exclusively by Atticus O'Sullivan (aka. Siodhachan O Suileabhain), a genuine Druid who owns and runs an occult bookshop, Third Eye Books and Herbs, as he gets embroiled in the day-to-day struggle of gods and goddesses and other supernatural creatures.
After Granuaile is bound to the earth as a druid, some of the chapters are narrated by her. Upon his rescue from the Time Island, Owen Kennedy (arch druid to Atticus) begins narrating some of the chapters.
Reception
Reception for the series has been mostly positive, with Publishers Weekly praising the first three books in the series.
