"Patricia Briggs always enchants her readers. With Moon Called, she weaves her magic on every page to take us into a new and dazzling world of werewolves, shapeshifters, witches, and vampires. Expect to be spellbound.” (Lynn Viehl, New York Times best-selling author)

“I’ve never been disappointed by one of [Patricia Briggs’s] books and this one is no exception...Moon Called ends on a high note and leaves you wanting more.” (Fresh Fiction)

Fantastic book

Fantastic book, I highly enjoyed it. Much better than I thought it would be. Well written and well performed. I'll listen to the rest of the series.

worth buying!

I like the female led. She is sarcastic and feisty. The narrator did a good job at showing these qualities.

great story

the story is fantastic. the reason why I did not give it 5 stars is because I did not like how the narrator portrayed the characters.

great setting, OK story

I liked this books right up until it becomes clear why the bad guys acted as they did. It makes absolutely no sense to me. So if you can live with a somewhat weak explanation for why stuff happens, the storyline is enjoyable. Narrator is amazing.

Mercy is awsome

Good narration, rereading the story or this time, having it read, is good for hands free for other needed activities :-).
Here we meet Mercy, a walker, living among wolves and fairies and all their crab, which she gets tangled up in. One of my favorite series!

A good first book in a series.

I found out about Moon Called from reading an article of Top Ten Urban Fantasy Series. I enjoyed the characters and the main character being just a good old fashioned mechanic is a nice twist. I’m going to listen to the next book in the series to decide if it’s worth my full attention.
