River Marked

Mercy Thompson, Book 6

By: Patricia Briggs

Narrated by: Lorelei King

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...

Wonderful

After book 5 I had thought Patricia Briggs had lost direction with her Mercy character. I am very pleased with River Marked it brings us back to what made me fall in love with this series to begin with. A full cast of the characters we know and love yet continuing the story line in a way thats not repetitive. A wonderful book on its own and a great addition to the series. Lorelei King does a very good job narrating a must listen.

Fantastic

This was yet another great book. I would recommend this book as well as all the others in this series. I just cannot get enough.

awesome all the way through

love it. Briggs never disappoints with her stories. love each story. and hope she has more later on. never want it to end

Kill the cheesy music, Please.

Great book for Mercy fans. The music at the beginning is so annoying- why do they do that?
