Mercy resides in the same world as you and I with one sharp difference: the general public is aware of supernaturals. While that category is broad and includes shapeshifters (walkers and werewolves), vampires, demons, and witches, the lesser fae were the only group known. These fae were in fact revealed by their own "Grey Lords" years previous, and recently the werewolves have followed suit.
Mercy happens to owe her vampire friend Stefan (head vampire in the Scooby-Doo fan club) a favour or two. Stefan keeps her abilities a secret from the other vampires in his seethe in exchange for work on his VW Bus and other things. He asks Mercy to sit in on a meeting, in coyote form, with an out-of-town vampire who has yet to pay his respects to Marsilia, the head of his seethe.
The only thing Mercy scents during the meeting is vampire, recent death and the fear radiating off Stefan. Stefan, who has been around since the Renaissance and is one of his mistress’s head lieutenants, is not one to frighten easily. Although, in this case, his fear happens to be understandable because this is no ordinary vampire. His name is Corey Littleton and he happens to be ridden by a demon.
Blood Bound is the second book in Patricia Briggs's Mercy Thompson series. With all of the groundwork that Ms. Briggs laid out in Moon Called (Mercy Thompson, Book 1)
Patricia Briggs is one of the stellar talents in fantasy. Not just paranormal, she can run the entire gambit in fantasy. I look forward to and value each and every one of her novels and know, with complete confidence, that they can be purchased at the date of release in hardbound. If you are looking for an enjoyable new series to start, the Mercy Thompson series is one I would recommend with all of my reviewer’s heart.
Blood Bound rightfully receives A Classic rating, 4 out of 4 Stars.
