Another fun, quirky, well written Mercy book! I enjoy these so much. The male narrator took a little while for me to get used to, simply because it wasn’t the voice I had in my head for Adam. However, once I got into the story that didn’t matter and I enjoyed every minute of it. It’s so interesting to see how all the personalities and histories of all the characters continue to be flushed out and grown. I really liked the little bit of history with the Golem and really want to do some research.

I love and appreciate the cast of characters list. Makes such a difference with memory and attention problems as we wait between releases.

This was a solid entry in the Mercy Thompson series.

The cons: The sexism still bugs, and everyone is so cutely nerdy and sarcastic that it's almost twee. Also HATED the twist at the end.

The pros: Briggs took the story in some fun directions, I like seeing the gradual discovery of Mercy's destiny and powers. Also I always know a Mercy Thompson book is going to be a fun romp.

I love Mercy and her mismatched pack of friends and family. Fast-paced, well-written, and fun. Urban fantasy when it's at its best.

Silence Fallen had so much danger and suspense! It has been a while since I spent some time with Mercy, Adam and the rest, and I had missed them. Of course, I truly realized this while I was reading.
Part of the action here took place in Prague, and I loved that. I recognized some of the places Mercy saw, and I had the same reaction as her to the absinthe shop!
Well written, fast-paced, and with Mercy continuing to be awesome, I loved Silence Fallen so much.

I think Mercy Thompson is one of my favorite series. As always, there's adventure, action, love, a mystery to solve!

Seriously, if you like werewolves and urban fantasy, what are you doing if you haven't even tried this series?
