Thor is the Norse God of Thunder and the antagonist in Hammered, the third book of The Iron Druid Chronicles. In the story, Atticus O'Sullivan teams up with friends to travel to Asgard and defeat Thor.
In Norse mythology, Thor (from Old Norse Þórr) is a hammer-wielding god associated with thunder, lightning, storms, oak trees, strength, the protection of mankind, and also hallowing, healing, and fertility.
He is discribed as a brutal lunatic. He killed the wife and sons of Leif Helgarson, nine members of the Tempe werewolf pack, the white goat of Zhang Guo Lao, a friendly sea monster and child of Jörmungandr. So the vampire Leif, the werewolf Alpha Gunnar Magnusson, Zhang Guo Lao, Väinämöinen and the russian thunder god Perun wanted to kill him. Gunnar and Väinämoinen died, but Leif killed Thor with Moralltach.
In Ragnarök he was alive again, because the Norse Gods have many believers, and fight against Hel and Loki.
