I am having the series has gone on too long issues. Yes it was good, yes I enjoyed it. But it is book 14! I am tired and feels like it should end. The same feeling I have with the October Daye books. Like end it and start a new fresh series.




A lyre is missing. Mercy and Adam is sent there. Trouble, snowstorm. Magical beings.




WAY too many interludes. Like why? they bored me.




Ugh, it sounds like I did not like the book. I liked it, it´s just. I am tired of reading the same old same old. It feels like if I missed the next three I would not miss a thing and could just jump back in.




It is good. Remember that. But for me Mercy should get some sort of happy ending and be left in peace





My name is Mercy Thompson Hauptman, and my mate, Adam, is the werewolf who leads the Columbia Basin Pack, the pack charged with keeping the people who live and work in the Tri-Cities of Washington State safe. It's a hard job, and it doesn't leave much room for side quests. Which is why when I needed to travel to Montana to help my brother, I intended to go by myself. But I'm not alone anymore.




Together, Adam and I find ourselves trapped with strangers in a lodge in the heart of the wilderness, in the teeth of a storm of legendary power, only to discover my brother's issues are a tiny part of a problem much bigger than we could have imagined. Arcane and ancient magics are at work that could, unless we are very careful, bring about the end of the world . . .

  1. OH... that's a bummer that you feel the series is getting tired and redundant. I really liked the standalone story based in Norse mythology. I felt it was different that the previous stories. Oh well.

  2. I love this series and I'm eager for every book! This did feel like a bit of a filler, but I think things are gearing up for a showdown between them and Bonarata.
