Reseñas de la Crítica

“The third book in an increasingly excellent series, Iron Kissed has all the elements I've come to expect in a Patricia Briggs novel: sharp, perceptive, characterization, non-stop action, and a level-headed attention to detail and location. I love these books.” (Charlaine Harris, number-one New York Times best-selling author)

“Another top-notch paranormal mystery...Thompson is a sharp, strong heroine and her lycanthropic love triangle is honest and steamy...a tense, nimble, crowd-pleasing page-turner.” (Publishers Weekly)

Another good one...

4.5-5 stars

This was a great story and addition to the series. I really love this series but I will admit that this book bothered me a bit because **spoiler** Mercy gets beaten up and raped by the bad guy. The language used for the rape is vague and distances the act a bit but it's still disturbing to read. It's not fun but very well done. **end spoiler**

In this book, Mercy's friend and former mentor, Zee, asks her to help the Fae investigate some murders happening in their community. Mercy still owes the Fae a favor for borrowing implements that helped her kill some vampires in the previous book so she agrees to help. She does what she can but the investigation leads to deeper issues when Zee gets arrested for a murder he didn't commit. Everyone tells Mercy to stay out of it but Zee's a good friend and Mercy is loyal so she keeps snooping. She succeed in her investigating but things go bad (see the spoiler above). Thankfully, Mercy is able to take down the bad guy and prove Zee's innocence.

This was a extremely well written story and I did enjoy it a lot...except for the obvious parts. And when that part of the story was over, I really liked the aftermath and how Mercy and Adam deal with things. It was very well done and I loved to see it. Overall, this was a great story and I would recommend the series. :)

Wow

Love mercy Thomson. This is one of the best series I've read in a long time.
Ben , the character Ben has developed nicely. A back story is provided for him.
All in all I recommend this series.

A fun series to read

Great fun and you can all most believe in magic, shape shifters and the whole other worldly characters. Nicely done and a great pace with interesting twists and turns. If you like this genre, and I do, then kick back and be entertained.Pick up the whole series and it is good to read it in sequence.

great book

this is a great book & has a great reader, no complaints. I would so recommend this series.

Great story!

i love the Mercy books! The stories are exciting. I want an Adam in my life.

Love Mercy!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Most definitely and I already have. I have read/listened to all 6 books (including all three Alpha and Omega) and I am patiently waiting for the 7 Mercy to come out in March!

What did you like best about this story?

I love the story line between the main characters - especially Adam, Samual and Mercy. But what I especially liked in this story was the walking stick, I think I need one. And as you read/listen to more books you will come to learn more about the walking stick and how important it is to the stories moving forward.

What does Lorelei King bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I must say that Lorelei King is one of my favorit narrators...I don't have many as most narrators cannot make their voices sound like so many different characters. She reminds me a lot of Khristine Hvam in the Chronicles of Elantra, both narrators don't even have to say he said she said w/o you knowing which of the characters are speaking. Truly amazing and she is keeping me from actually reading any of the Mercy Thompson series. As much as I love Holter Graham, I wish Ms. King was also reading the Alpha and Omega series too.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were many...but I don't believe in spoilers.

Any additional comments?

All of the Mercy Thompson books are a must listen!

Always Amazing.

I always love this series. This book can make me a little sad, but Mercy gets her justice and is an inspiration to many women.

I'm completely addicted to this series!

If you could sum up Iron Kissed in three words, what would they be?

Magical, sarcastic, sexy.

What did you like best about this story?

I love Macy Thompson and her charismatic sarcasm.

Mercy Thompsons comments off to make me burst out in laughter.

Any additional comments?

There's so many wonderful things about this series. I cannot get enough of Mercy.

This one is a bit more intense.

I liked this book very much, but I have a hard time with what happens to Mercy in this one. I'm not sure if I could read this book again. I hope that it doesn’t change Mercy too much. This series needs to be read in order. I still wish the romance between Adam and Mercy was a bit more, although it is getting better. I always felt that Samuel was more brother like, than lover like. I was warming up to Ben in the last book and now I like him even more. I really like the characters in this book and to me that is a big part of the books. I also really like the world she has built and I plan on reading the remainder of the series.

Hooked

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I'm so hooked on this series! I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes supernatural, fiction series.

What does Lorelei King bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her different voices for each character are great. All her different accents are even all on point. I get a kick out of hearing some of them.

Any additional comments?

If you liked it from the beginning keep on reading because they just keep coming back with more good stuff. I like how there's just enough romance, and not too much blood and gore. I just love it.
