About this listen

I am Mercedes Athena Thompson Hauptman. My only 'superpowers' are that I turn into a 35-pound coyote and fix Volkswagens. But I have friends in odd places and a pack of werewolves at my back. It looks like I'm going to need them.

Centuries ago, the fae dwelt in Underhill. When they were cast out, they left behind their great castles, troves of magical artefacts...and their prisoners. Without the fae to mind them, those creatures roamed freely through Underhill wreaking havoc. Only the deadliest survived.

Now one of those prisoners has escaped. It can look like any creature it chooses and if it bites you, it controls you. It lives for chaos and destruction and can make you do anything - even kill the person you love the most. Now it is here, in the Tri-Cities. In my territory.

It won't - can't - remain. Not if I have anything to say about it.

Mercy Thompson returns in another thrilling instalment from number one New York Times best-selling author Patricia Briggs.

I found every excuse under the sun to find a quiet place and listen to this story. It keeps the pace really well and was hard to find a point to stop. I can't wait for the next, this series has not let me down.

Every time I listen to/read another Mercy book I am more amazed by Patricia Briggs and her story telling abilities. Every book is so different then the last yet somehow connect to the last in such a way that you don’t need to have read any other book to be able to just jump into a a series midway. This book had so many bad guys all wanting something different. All in all 5 stars just were not enough but were all I could give.

Amazing

Is the last sentence! A series that just gets better and better. Three more words.

And the best bit....

Patricia has mastered the art of keeping you guessing until the very end; so many twists and turns in this installment of the Mercy Thompson Series that you will be on the edge of your seat for the whole story. I can't say much more other than I simply loved it.

My only quip is that I adore Wolf and Stephan as characters and I would like to see more of them. I feel that the wolf pack and her mate have had a lot of page time (so to speak) and I am looking forward to seeing more of the other characters in future works.

Keep you guessing until the end...

The Mercy Thompson series is one of the very best in this genre - something I realised having been scratching around some of the others and most of them are not as good. Here we have another attack on Mercy and her friends and its as gripping as always. Lorelei King is just the perfect narrator. Fortunately she is back narrating on her own which is much better. If you like the Mercy books you will like this one shame we have to wait for Particia to write another one now

As good as I had hoped

Another terrific story by Patricia, with loads of tension from enemies coming from all directions. Read brilliantly once more by Lorelei King.
