Publisher's summary

Mechanic Mercy Thompson has friends in low places - and in dark ones. And now she owes one of them a favor. Since she can shape-shift at will, she agrees to act as some extra muscle when her vampire friend Stefan goes to deliver a message to another of his kind. But this new vampire is hardly ordinary - and neither is the demon inside of him.

Have Mercy: listen to another Mercy Thompson chiller.

Critic reviews

“A full bore action adventure with heart...be prepared to read in one sitting because once you get going there is no good place to stop until tomorrow.” (SFRevu)

“Briggs has created a believable alternative world populated with strong dynamite characters, deadly adversaries and cunningly laid plots that leave the reader looking for more.” (Monsters and Critics)

Tired of listening to stories about humans? Consider the werewolf! Taking various forms over the course of centuries and mythologies, often as flesh-devourers, werewolves now commonly appear in fantasy and romance novels as shape-shifters. The shape-shifting element in werewolves' stories has almost humanized them, depicting the internal struggles we all face within ourselves, on some level or another.

Blood Bound

Patricia Briggs and Lorelei King bring it AGAIN! This time with a demon ridden bad guy that leaves most of Mercy's friends scrambling or hurt. What does she do? Fights the bad guys! She's not the bad ass who doesn't need a man. She's the bad ass that risks her life for her friends. No matter what.

More Mercy all around

It’s 6 months since the events in Moon Called, and Stefan is calling in his favor to Mercy. She goes with him to check out a vampire who has come into the area without permission. What follows is a hunt for the most terrifying vampire of all - a Sorcerer. In between, Mercy has to deal with attentions from Adam and Sam; realizes that Stefan also has personal feelings for her; guilts the Fae into providing indirect assistance; and rescues the guys from the Sorcerer. When the vampires fail to meet out justice, Mercy uses her newfound Walker skills to do it.
King is one of the top narrators for a reason.
Recommend!
