These books just get better and better. Patricia Briggs doles out little tidbits of everyone's lives to make the waiting worthwhile. You get some new information on Zee, Samuel and even Adam. I really like the way Ms. Briggs weaves elements of previous stories in so you know whose who and what happened in just a few sentences. With series books published so far apart, it's often difficult to remember specifics. I believe the last installment had vampires; this one, the Fae. Mercy is an amazing character who just takes hit after hit until she's finally had enough and strikes back. I enjoyed the multi-layered storyline: multiple kidnappings, Mary Jo's betrayal, the werewolf challenge, Adam's injuries and Sylvia's defection. So much going on but nothing lost in the hoopla. Wonderfully written and even Samuel gets a happy ending.
