I have enjoyed Patricia Briggs' fantasy novels for years now. I was thrilled when I learned she was writing urban fantasy.
Mercedes Thompson is a stong and resourceful heroine, a coyote shifter in a world of werewolves, vampires, and fey. She was raised by werewolves and lives very close to the local pack alpha. It is no surprise, then, when she becomes embroiled in affairs of intrigue and pack culture.
Young shape shifters are at risk and Mercy takes one under her wing.
This is a fantastic urban fantasy, with slight similarities to some of the best in this genre, but at the same time, very unique and striking. The world she has created is fantastic and well drawn and the sociological aspects are fascinating.
Mercy's relationships to the various men in her life are complex. This lends another layer to this fabulous story.
