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)

love...quadrangle?

Poor Mercy! What's a walker girl to do, when all those big strong alphas are sniffing around? kick butt and take names, of course! this professional sounding book was very well done, and the choice of narrator was perfect.

Mercy is great!!

Any additional comments?

NUMBER OF HEARTS: 4 1/2
Another wonderful adventure with Mercy Thompson and the supernatural creatures of the Tri-Cities. I just love Mercy. She is smart, tough and wily just like the coyote that she is. Mercy had to use all of her skills in Blood Bound! There is a lot of things that happen that will make future stories very interesting.
The love triangle between Adam-Mercy-Samuel is driving me a bit nuts!! Make a choice girl!!! I love both of these wolfs and am going to be be heartbroken for one of them.
I can’t wait to see what is next for Mercy!!!
And of course the amazingly talented Ms. King lends her voice to bring Mercy, Adam, Samuel, Stefan and the rest of wolfs, vamps, shifters, fae and others. I always love having Ms. King read to me a story. Because she doesn't’ just read it she lives the story. There is a huge difference between reading and telling a story and Ms. King does this job wonderfully!!!
On to the next story!!

Mercy Thompson is my guilty pleasure

Very entertaining. A spunky, smart heroine holding her own amongst werewolves, vampires, and the fey.

Another great listen

New adventure with Mercy and I am still hooked. The story is filled with adventure, action, challenges, humor and romance - brought expertly forward through the different characters. The narrator is still doing a wonderful job telling the story. Enjoyed every minute.

Caught in the Dark

There is a vampire, sorcerer terrorizing the Tri-Cities and Mercy gets caught in the middle. This is an action packed mystery that will keep you guessing. Great performance by Lorelei King.

Fantastic

This series is what alpha and omega should have been. the second of the Mercy Thompson series I have listened to and it was just as entertaining as the first. I'm really liking this series and the narrator.

Love this series

I love the Mercy Thompson book series. It has everything that draws me in. A great heroine who is both strong but needs help. A bit of comedy that makes me laugh out loud from time to time. A great world of paranormal. And overall good story telling.

Not your Ordinary Mechanic!

Great book. I love this series but accidently started with book 4 so I am catching up and enjoying every minute of it. Mercedes is a excellent female lead surrounded by intriguing characters and Ms. Briggs brilliant story telling makes it difficult to return to real life obligations when entangled in her books.
