Publisher's Summary

'I didn't realize he was a werewolf at first. My nose isn't at its best when surrounded by axle grease and burnt oil....'

Mercedes Thompson runs a garage in the Tri-Cities. She's a mechanic, and a damn good one, who spends her spare time karate training and tinkering with a VW bus that happens to belong to a vampire. Her next-door neighbour is an alpha werewolf - literally, the leader of the pack. And Mercy herself is a shapeshifter, sister to coyotes. As such, she's tolerated by the 'wolves but definitely down the pecking order. As long as she keeps her eyes down and remembers her place, the pack will leave her in peace.

Fantastic, believable, fast paced

I have read this book a number of times before but am just experimenting with Audible. What a fantastic experience. listened to it in one sitting and just could not stop. The narrator managed to distinguish between the voices of everyone so well it was a pleasure to listen to.

My first Briggs book

This was the first Patricia Briggs book I had encountered and now I am definitely keen to read more. She gives her characters great depth and detail, and I enjoyed the combination of action & mythology.... With a touch of romance/sexiness.

The performance in this audio book was good. Easy to listen to.

good storyline

I liked it but I'm a bit more on the gritty side and there's not much steam happening here. there were convenient moments of realisation throughout which helped the book along. it's also only book 1 so I suspect ms briggs is paving the way.
great narration by Lorelei all the different accents were great.
may come back to book 2...

Mercy book 1

I own the book, so listening to the story was different because I knew what was upcoming. I found myself thoroughly engrossed in the story. Looking forward to listening through the series!

Great narration, even better story...

This is without a doubt one of my favourite books I have ever read (repeatedly). The story is amazing and a good starter, giving you a taste of the Mercyverse which will have you binge listening/reading all her books, there is another series from Briggs which follows parallel with Mercy however you can easily only listen/read this series and still know what's happening (which is good since Alpha and Omega series isn't yet available on audible... boo). The narration is great, really portrays the characters and more importantly is consistant throughout the series (so far) so no need to worry that'll you get used to one voice in one book only to have to get used to another in the following. Overall, definitely a book you'll keep re-reading/listening to for many years to come.
