Hounded by Kevin Hearne
I'm a sucker for stories that incorporate different mythical creatures into reality (The Southern Vampire Mysteries, The Lost Gate, Harry Potter, The Mortal Instruments, I think you get the picture), but this series takes it to an entirely different level. We're not only talking vampires, demons, werewolves, and fairies; but also all the gods ever thought of or believed in. I loved it!
Atticus is a centuries-old druid living in modern day Arizona. He stays out of trouble by blending in, but an old feud with a Celtic god rocks his mellow life in this first book of The Iron Druid Chronicles. He uses the help of his supernatural lawyers, goddess protector, and other back-up plans to get out of trouble.
The main character is perfect. He's super old, so he knows just about everything, but he's also really funny. AND he has a talking dog. What's not to love??
