alternate world. Story line is awesome, love the attitude and the author did a great job.

Synopsis:

“Mercy Thompson’s life is not exactly normal. Her next-door neighbor is a werewolf. Her former boss is a gremlin. And she’s fixing a VW bus for a vampire. But then, Mercy isn’t exactly normal herself…. and her connection to the world of things that go bump in the night is about to get her into a whole lot of trouble.”

Mercy is a shapeshifter, by the way. Coyote… What a refreshing read! I really liked it. Yet again a new look at werewolves. And fae, vampires and the whole other shebang. Good fun. I have to check if there are more Mercy Thompson books around – to find out, if there is more to come with her and that nice, good looking werewolf. Not telling you, which one! You have to find out yourself. No, but this is not the usual hot steamy paranormal sex thing, there is a good deal of old fashioned sleuthing going on and hunting and firearms and karate…. I have to go to Amazon now and stick everything by Patricia Briggs on my wishlist, excuse me for a moment…

Liked it alot. I hope that Patricia Briggs writes more stories in this worldscape. For me this book had a similar feel to it of Kelly Armstrong’s werewolf/vamp world, and the writing was very fluid, easy to read and made sense. There were some elements of comedy, but she kept the story on a more dramatic note, and left out alot of what I call “fluff”, which some authors seem determined to write into their vamp/werewolf/witch stories. All in all, a great read!
