Patricia Briggs is a great author and her mercy thompson series is the greatest and most compelling
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
The lead character, Mercy Thompson, is a shape shifter in this series by Patricia Briggs. She is a strong female character, i.e. she own's a garage and is the mechanic in town. But, the magical characters that surround her and the directions that her life takes in this series keep the reader captivated from start to finish. Between werewolves, vampires, fairies, shapeshifters and Mercy herself, this book (as well as this series) make for an enjoyable ride. I bought this book after borrowing it from a friend. I enjoyed it so much that I knew I would go back to reread it several times.
I am very satisfied with this author and the ongoing story featuring Mercy Thompson.

I love this series - and just about everything else Patricia Briggs has written. I have most of the paperbacks for this series and am now trying to get the hardbacks. Some are kind of rare, so they can be difficult to find. Mercy is a VW mechanic that gets involved with werewolves, vampires, and fey folk. Lots of action, very compelling story, and a little romance. I would highly recommend this series and this book!

My family loves Patricia Briggs especially the Mercedes series. We are extremely happy with our purchase. The book, her first in hardbound, is a really good read. I especially like the fact that Ms. Briggs brings life to her characters, using ideas that we all grew up with in the first place. Buy the book and read it for yourself, and you will really be a fan, especially if you like this type of read.
Love this book. Came early and in great shape.

This is a great series and I'm delighted that it's now becoming avaialble in hardcover as you'll want to keep the book and re-read it! The character (Mercy) has a unique profession (VW mechanic) and is very independent, which makes her much more interesting than your average paranormal heroine. She interacts with a different group of supernaturals in each book. Recommended series!
Not as good as the prior books in the series.

The story kept me captivated with Mercy's troubles as usual. That girl could get in trouble going to the bathroom. The plot was thick and juicy as I like them and the character development continued from Brigg's previous books. We find out more about Vampires and more about werewolves which fills in some history and makes the whole series that much more enjoyable.
Dislike that the series is now released in hardback, but only because I'm running out of bookself space and it is more expensive. I'm glad that it is popular enough to merit this change in format. Patricia Briggs is a fantastic writer and deserves credit. This book continues Mercy's story with interesting twists and developments of both characters and the world in which they live.
