Publisher's summary

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
Mercy Thompson, car mechanic and shapeshifter, must stop a disaster of world-shattering proportions in this exhilarating entry in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

In the supernatural realms, there are creatures who belong to winter. I am not one of them. But like the coyote I can become at will, I am adaptable.

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. . . .

a decent read

This was not my favorite book in the series but I was entertained. I dont regret buying it.

New Favorite

This is my new favorite Mercy Thompson book. It feels more like a book in the Alpha & Omega series. Adam and Mercy go someplace to solve a problem, interacting with new and interesting people.

Mercy and Adam’s courage I. Facing their struggles and all encompassing love.

As much as I love Mercy’s storyline I would love more on the supporting characters.

Another great stiry

I really enjoyed this story. Mercy and Adam get to spend a lot of time together in this one and I love their interaction.

Another winner

Such an awesome series of books and friends. I recommend all of the books. Amused me for two days

Awesome

We like The whole book! No dislikes. Hungry for MORE! Hollywood or someone really needs to make this series into movies!! Stop remaking the remakes over and over. THIS SERIES WOULD MAKE GREAT MOVIES!! OR TV SERIES! Start with MOON CALLED please Hollywood!

Love this series!

4.5 Stars ⭐️

It has been a while since I have been able to jump back into the world of Mercy Thompson (it's been about 2 years) so I was thrilled when I saw it was a New Release. I ended up listening to most of this on audio and to me, Lorelei King has been a consistent narrator for most of the series and I think, she does a fantastic job.

This is a little bit of an unusual storyline as it has Mercy and Adam away from the Pack for most of the book. Mercy's brother Gary has gotten himself into a spot of trouble and Mercy discovers that somehow, the trouble involves some REALLY, really powerful creatures. Coyote may or may not have had a hand in things......

This storyline is interesting, and.....different. There are several new characters introduced with many different paranormal backgrounds. There is also a tight timeline that has to be met or else, well, I'll let you discover the "or else"

All in all, I really enjoyed this book and before I knew it, it was over. *sigh* There is so much excitement and before you know it, it's back to waiting for the next book. But, that is why you can be 20 books into a series and still get butterflies in your stomach when you realize that there is a new book out. Those are the feelings and reactions that some people will never experience nor understand. The wonderful joys of reading.....aren't we the lucky ones?

An incredible story

I enjoyed the different POV’s that were added to this book and the unique takes on these characters.

A little short

A great story as usual. but it felt more like a novella written between novels, rather than a full blown novel. Mercy's story has gotten so big, and her enemies so terrifying, I expected another big bad, but such did not materialize. I am laughing at myself a little because apocalypse alone wasn't enough of a threat to keep me on the edge of my seat.

Another wonderful adventure!!

As per usual, mercy is interesting full of thrills and chills always a good read. Can’t wait to the next.
