I had multiple problems with this book but altogether it wasn't that bad. I will at least give the second book a try to see if I continue with the series or not.

Updating my earlier rating to 5 stars. It's been probably 15 years since I read this and it's just as good now as it was then (perhaps better!). I think I'll make my way through the MercyVerse in order this time....

It's the 3rd time I've read this book and I still love it. I absolutely love Mercy and her badass personality, the action, mystery, the supernatural element (that is explained really nicely) and just the whole novel itself. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get sucked into a book ;)

4.5

When a coyote shifter Volkswagon mechanic takes in a homeless new werewolf teen, her goal of keeping her head down and minding her own business in the local Tri-Cities supernatural community is blown to bits. This is not my first time reuniting with the first book in the Mercy Thompson urban fantasy world, but it was my first encounter with the Graphic Audio full cast edition which took a good story and made it even better.

Mercy had a unique upbringing and is a unique individual. She's young, but she has hidden depths that come out as the story progresses. She considers herself low in the supernatural power hierarchy, but it was fun seeing this underdog-erm under coyote find a way to get it done. Much of the story is introducing Patricia Briggs' urban fantasy world, but this does not bury the exciting story crescendoing to an action-packed climax.

Getting the sound effects, music, and full cast dramatization was sensational and I liked the voices chosen. I had to laugh at how Stefan was voice- very different from the one I had in my head for him.

All in all, a fun and exciting outing making me excited to listen in as Graphic Audio continues to release the rest of the series.
