My TBB List or Novels Worth Mentioning

by Avid Reader on April 12, 2009

in Avid Musings

I am a reader who likes vari­ety. I started read­ing romance but then started read­ing mys­tery then even­tu­ally branched out into SF/F and urban fan­tasy and YA adult. Too much of one thing is well…eh, bor­ing. Put it like this, it keeps things inter­est­ing and fresh for me. So I mix it up and these are the titles […]

Mercy is a shape shifter or […]

My first Patri­cia Briggs novel was Moon Called (2006), the first book in her urban fan­tasy series fea­tur­ing VW mechanic and shape shifter, Mercy Thomp­son. I went on to read and enjoy her Hurog duol­ogy — Dragon Bones and Dragon Blood. What I love about Ms. Briggs’s work is that she is a solid writer who works very […]

in Avid Musings

So, what books are you antic­i­pat­ing for the New Year? There really aren’t very many antic­i­pated reads for me for the upcom­ing year. Maybe I can take a peek at some­one else’s list. Anyway, I am excited about Shana Abe’s third book in her dra’kon tril­ogy com­ing Dec 07, Queen of Drag­ons. There’s also Patri­cia Brigg’s third Mercy Thomp­son book, Iron Kissed, due […]

Blood Bound (2007) by Patri­cia Briggs is an urban fan­tasy novel and the sec­ond book in the Mercy Thomp­son series.
Just in case you haven’t read the first book, Moon Called, here is a brief syn­op­sis for you: Mercy Thomp­son is a mechanic who is not human. She’s a coy­ote or  “walker”  who changes at will; coyotes are an ancient […]

Dragon Bones by Patri­cia Briggs (2002), pub­lished by Ace. I enjoyed Moon Called and wanted some­thing else to read from Brigg’s back­list. An online pal said that the Hurog Duol­ogy would be worth check­ing out and it is. Briggs has writ­ten a very inter­est­ing hero whose POV dom­i­nates much of the book. Here is the synop:
Most every­one thinks […]

Hurog means Dragon” Dragon Blood is an excel­lent sequel to Dragon Bones with a hero that is absolutely yummy. How­ever, this is not a romance but a fan­tasy novel with roman­tic ele­ments added to it. This duol­ogy was escape fic­tion at it’s very best.
Dragon Blood by Patri­cia Briggs takes place four years after the events of Dragon Bones. In […]

Moon Called by Patri­cia Briggs, is the first book in a new series. The nar­ra­tor is Mer­cedes Thomp­son aka Mercy. She’s a “walker” who has a broth­er­hood with the coy­ote and runs her own mechanic shop in the Tri-Cities. Love the paw print tat­too, don’t you?
I thor­oughly enjoyed this urban fan­tasy by Patri­cia Briggs that is set in […]
