Plot introduction
Being the last Druid carries with it several complications, especially when you become infamous for helping to kill Thor and decimate the Norse pantheon. Now with a whole host of deities hunting him, Atticus O'Sullivan, along with his faithful dog Oberon, and initiate Granuaile, decide to leave his Third Eye Books and Herbs occult shop in Tempe and go into hiding, with the help of Coyote, the Navajo trickster god, who asks a favor in return. Yet, deals with Coyote aren't always what they seem and if Atticus can survive faking his own death he'll have to contend with undead skinwalkers and a vampire blood feud that threatens to engulf all of Arizona.

The novel blends elements of mythology and urban fantasy.
