I love the Mercy Thompson series! This was definitely wasn't my favorite. I usually rate/rave better than this. The overall story was great, the plot moved along fairly quickly and I liked the big problem in this story. However, this series is definitely not one that you should binge read. Although I flew through the first 5 books, I'm taking a little break since each book is finding its comfortable rhythm. It's not necessarily bad for a long series to find a rhythm, it can just become very repetitive/predictable. The only problem I had with this book, which is what heavily affected the rating, was the big Sam/Samuel plotline. We (I hope) as readers saw that coming, and I was really excited to see the author play on his sorrow and guilt, which they did by producing the problematic storyline with him in this book. But I HATED, I repeat, HATED how quickly Briggs resolved it. It was literally off page as well as within the span of a chapter. She spent the WHOLE book building and building only to resolve it hastily and without any real emotion or meaning. Briggs, if you were going to make that risky decision (which I loved!) then commit!! 

Overall, another great story in a great series. As soon as I'm done with my little break, I'll be continuing!

I LOVED it! Yet another winner from Brigs. I swear I love the Mercy books more and more and more with each one I read! I sure hope there's another one coming up after this one!

Si vous n'avez pas lu les premiers tomes, ne lisez pas cet avis, sous risque d'être spoilés.

Je vénère Patricia Briggs et tous ses personnages, Mercy en particulier niveau protagoniste féminin ; aussi avais-je particulièrement hâte de me lancer dans ce cinquième tome des aventures de ma mécanicienne préféré ! (...)

Oh, it took me ages to read this one... simply couldn't concentrate. Still going to continue with the series, as it's my "guilty pleasure" read.
