Publisher's summary

Car mechanic Mercy Thompson has always known there was something different about her, and not just the way she can make a VW engine sit up and beg. Mercy is a shapeshifter, a talent she inherited from her long-gone father. She's never known any others of her kind. Until now.

An evil is stirring in the depths of the Columbia River - one that her father's people may know something about. And to have any hope of surviving, Mercy and her mate, the Alpha werewolf Adam, will need their help....

Have Mercy! Listen to another Mercy Thompson chiller.

Critic reviews

"An outstanding urban fantasy novel with some well-loved and well-traveled characters...The way [Briggs] writes about all of the different fictional supernatural creatures is fascinating and keeps you on your toes.” (Examiner.com)

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

Great series!

Would you consider the audio edition of River Marked to be better than the print version?

Yes, I think Lorelei King brings life to the characters.

Would you recommend River Marked to your friends? Why or why not?

It's exciting, romantic and sweet.

What does Lorelei King bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Yes gives a maturity and calmness to Mercys character.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Now, it was a bit slower than most of the other books my Patricia Briggs.

Any additional comments?

If you haven't listened to the series, you should!

Meh

Not as good as the previous books. I guess this can be expected in a series. I will still listen to the next book though.

Great Continuation of Mercy's Story

I really enjoyed the exploration of Native American mythology. As well as discovering more about Mercy's past and origins.

These books never disappoint

I love this series, it really has it all. Plot, adventure, romance overall it is an amazing ride. Also there is romance but no graphic detailed anatomy lesson passages, if you know what I mean. The narrator is just right. Highly recommend

Another great addition to the Mercy universe.

Wonderful story, great narrator. The story moves from one part to another without difficulties with transition. I not only reread but keep listening to these books without being bored.
