Okay, I'm definitely biased to Kevin Hearne and Luke Daniels (narrator) but I though this book was very cute. It's a quick read/listen and adds a nice little side story between the main series.

I had to wait until after I finally finished Scourged so I could read the last stories in chronological order.

I knew most of the stories in this one already and liked them. There a new really short one that I liked, and then there's the main one - first dangle.
Another one that had me sighing at the "mature" penis jokes...
It's a trait of the main character, as people weren't as fussy back on his day, but even the sloth constantly asking about "the little snake" and what happens to it when the druid changes form... *Exasperated eyeroll*
Aside from that it was quick and entertaining, and a sloth is obviously simply awesome as a character!

A couple of fun stories, but not essential to the overall IDC canon.
The Naughtiest Cherub - 4 - Loki's POV as he visits hell. Not really much to see here, folks. Definite popcorn filler
First Dangle - 4 - Owen and Slomo help out Coriander. Some nice character beats from Owen and Coriander, but not really essential to anything
The Waters - 2 - Granueille reflects on her connection to Gaia. Very much just a filler piece.

First Dangle and Other Stories is a great addition to the Iron Druid universe! This book is a collection of short stories exploring a Holy Grail story, the return of SloMo the sloth, and more. There’s also a really great sci-fi story tacked onto the end that isn’t part of the Iron Druid universe. I’d highly recommend this collection to those who’ve read The Iron Druid Chronicles. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
