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?

details

I adored the descriptions and details of the people and creatures in this book imparticular.

Fan of Mercy

I have to say I have enjoyed every one of these books and unfortunately have to wait for my once a month fix(new book) . But then these books are so good I finish them to fast. I love the humor, romance, friendship, mystery and action and adventure.
I really enjoy all the personalities in the book . I highly recommend this series.I do read some of the reviews and their have been books that deal with subjects that are harder. But, they are written well and I have still enjoy them.
This book was good because it brought in the Indian magic and some history which is nice to balance out the character.
The only negative is ( and this is personal opinion and not a big deal) Mercy seems to end every book bloody and broken. I appreciate that she is still very human and has her limits but geez.... the poor girl has had been beaten and abused. She always comes out on top but geez....

full on 5 stars

Mercy Thompson is always a wonderful read, but here with Lorelei King narrating it, the story comes alive.

GIVE ME MORE

Would you listen to River Marked again? Why?

listened to this one twice, I had to go back and confirm a few context clues that hint at what might be coming up in the next book...can't wait.

What was one of the most memorable moments of River Marked?

I was seriously concerned for our girl on the banks of that river! I mean she really gets herself in some spots. Also, what's up with the daddy vision? That's all I'm gonna say, no spoilers from me!

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

Love Lorelei King, she does male voices as well as female, and she gets that frustrated Werewolf voice just right, you can really tell Mercy can irritate even the most patient man. LOL

Any additional comments?

When is the next one coming out? Make sure you read the Alpha and Omega series too.

Entertaining

What made the experience of listening to River Marked the most enjoyable?

I like the character Mercy. She's interesting and self reliant, but not a super hero.

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

I think she adds a dimension of reality to the characters that one might not find for themselves.

Great as Always.

It was very exciting to listen to. Every story has excitement and love. thank you
