And finished too quickly, dang it. This was an exciting one, quite the ride, and worth the wait. I love these characters, and I get the feeling their adventures won’t be ending anytime soon. Bravo, Briggs! Keep ‘em coming! 2019 reread: Ah, the Mercyverse reread is almost over. I have loved revisiting every book, short story, and novella in these two series, and I’m looking forward to rereading Storm Cursed for the big finish (for now). 2021 reread: I was trying to keep this reread to audio on work commutes, but I found I needed the comfort of blowing through familiar territory this weekend. I don’t think I’ll ever tire of reading about this world. 2022 reread: one of my faves in this series—such a shocking reveal, and the start of a nice redemption arc for Leah. I love love love the curse-breaking scenes with Wellesley! I really enjoyed the twists and turns the story took. The marrok has left and needs Charles and Anna to check on his wildlings. Each wildling has a vast history, bouts of madness, and is vulnerable and dangerous. The mystery of who is trying to harm them is not resolved fully in this novel. I really hope there is a longer arc but that there is a full closure in the future.
Burn Bright by Patricia Briggs Fantasy -March 6th, 2018 4 ½ stars In the latest installment of Patricia Briggs’s Alpha and Omega series. Charles and Anna must deal with dangerously unstable werewolves and treachery. Charles and Anna are werewolves and mates. Charles is his father’s enforcer. His father is the Marrok, a very old and very powerful werewolf. But his father has mysteriously disappeared and Charles finds himself dealing with the Marrok’s ‘special’ members. These packmates live separated from the rest of the pack because they are unsafe to be around regular members. But when one of them comes to Charles for help he can’t turn him away. Soon Charles finds himself trying to discover who is targeting the isolated pack. Especially because it seems the attacks are coming from someone with special ops capabilities and lots of money. As they try to visit all of the pack members they discover that there may be someone within their pack betraying them. Can Charles and Anna discover the traitor and save the rest of the pack before it is too late? Charles and Anna make an incomparable team. I like that Anna and the reader get to see glimpses of the real Charles - who is the boogie man of the werewolf world. In each of the the Alpha and Omega books Charles and Anna are sent by the Marrock on missions but this time they are on their own. This leads the reader to wonder what has happened to the Marrock and the tantalizing idea of how Charles might lead the pack. Reading about the more extraordinary members of the pack made me want to know about them and which leads to the possibility of future unexplored books. This story seemed shorter and more unfinished than prior books in the series. Perhaps this is because the author leaves a lot areas left hanging. I enjoyed reading it but felt that there could have been three to four more chapters added at the end. This story felt like a solid side story instead of a full novel. Another winning paranormal from Patricia Briggs I only wish it were longer! Reviewed by Steph from the Bookaholics Romance Book Club Bemerkenswerte Listen
"In her bestselling Alpha and Omega series, Patricia Briggs "spins tales of werewolves, coyote shifters, and magic and, my, does she do it well" (USATODAY.com). Now mated werewolves Charles Cornick and Anna Latham face a threat like no other--one that lurks too close to home... They are the wild and the broken. The werewolves too damaged to live safely among their own kind. For their own good, they have been exiled to the outskirts of Aspen Creek, Montana. Close enough to the Marrok's pack to have its support; far enough away to not cause any harm. With their Alpha out of the country, Charles and Anna are on call when an SOS comes in from the fae mate of one such wildling. Heading into the mountainous wilderness, they interrupt the abduction of the wolf--but can't stop blood from being shed. Now Charles and Anna must use their skills--his as enforcer, hers as peacemaker--to track down the attackers, reopening a painful chapter in the past that springs from the darkest magic of the witchborn.."-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

I don't really remember much prior mention of the wildlings - old werewolves just about sane enough not to be put down, but too unstable to mix with the normal world. They live in pack lands, out among the desolate american wilderness - something that's always surprising to this european, is just how abandoned parts of the US really are. ( )
