This four-star review is only for the short story 'The Demon Barker of Wheat Street,' an Iron Druid Chronicle story that takes place chronologically between the fourth and fifth novels in the series. If you have read up to the fourth book in the series, there is really no reason not to read this short story, you'll definitely like it, along with the other two short stories set in between the fourth and fifth novels -- [b:Two Ravens and One Crow|15728721|Two Ravens and One Crow (The Iron Druid Chronicles, #4.5)|Kevin Hearne|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1344336650s/15728721.jpg|21407171] and [b:The Chapel Perilous|20637206|The Chapel Perilous (The Iron Druid Chronicles, #4.6)|Kevin Hearne|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1390752305s/20637206.jpg|39926571]. While I am sure any and all of these could be read as stand alone stories, they would reveal spoilers from the preceding novels, so I think they probably work best read in order.
