As soon as I met her in Moon Called, I was enamored.
Mercy was the first heroine in the UF genre who had true staying power for me. While I enjoyed these books in the moment, I always viewed them as junk food, something to be consumed and forgotten, leaving nothing behind but a vague literary equivalent of a stomach ache from overindulgence.
I had previous exposure to the genre, having binge read many of the Anita Blake novels (until it devolved into nothing but orgy after orgy), a handful of the Black Dagger Brotherhood books, and the first five of Moning’s Fever series. First of all, Briggs’s Mercy Thompson series served as my gateway into truly appreciating urban fantasy. I was ecstatic to receive a copy of this book. While I’m incredibly thankful, all opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. I received a copy of this book from the publisher (Ace) in exchange for an honest review.
