review 1: I like the way the author approaches these short stories, they are not paramount to the plot but even if it were he can sum it up in a paragraph in the next book, at least that's how a test of mettle went. We, who reads it, get a little side of action, humor and a little bit of character development but not much of a loss for those who don't feel like reading them. Win/win. Here, it was nice seeing that side of the Morrigan and knowing how she feels about the fact she's compelled to act threatening/sort of tsundere to people even though is detrimental to herself. It's cute. I think the story is good but I still don't like the way Atticus sometimes acts like a horny teenager, especially with Graniale but thinking he is biologically speaking quite young, maybe that's why his... more hormones are always in overdrive. That is the major characteristic I dislike about Atticus because I really like the humor in general. I was hoping to see Graniale's point of view again this time around but what are you gonna do
review 2: Kevin Hearne's Two Ravens and One Crow came free with the purchase of Hunted in paperback format! 1 book and 1 novella for whatever it was that I paid back in June! What a deal! Although, downside is that I had to backtrack with this one. This is story 4.5, so we're in the midst of Granuaile training when Atticus is called away by Morrigan to "help" her out with something.Turns out she wanted Atticus to meet with Odin so that they could work out a compromise. Things have been pretty heated between them after book 2, Hammered, and all. Those details were a bit lost to me, but the general concept was there! This also explained to me why Odin and Atticus were amicable with one another in Hunted! See, reading novellas really does help!As I said, reading novellas does help with understanding little tidbits of info here and there. And that is very true. Things that took place in Hunted make sense to me now. Anyway...this one basically is what I said it was, Odin and Atticus come to a truce of sorts. We also learn how Atticus came by with his ImmortaliTea--not sure I spelt that right--and basically how he became to be the never aging Druid that he is. I love a good backstory and sometimes you don't always get that in the novels, so that's where novellas come in.This was a nice, fast-paced little read. It's also kind of fun at times to backtrack and see how "frustrated" Atticus was before he and Granuaile get together. And of course Oberon is always to die for with his doggie wisdoms and all. Sadly, he and Granuaile weren't there for the majority of the story, but did make an appearance at the beginning and end.I would recommend reading this one anyway, no matter where you are in the series, if you can read it accurately, great! If not, still give it a go! Novellas are meant to be devoured in one sitting and this one definitely fits the bill in that regard, plus it's another amazing adventure of one, Atticus O'Sullivan!Overall Rating 4/5 stars less
