The writing isn’t bogged down one bit by this attention to detail – in fact, it is all dovetailed with extraordinary emotional development. Her world has a smell and taste, and I can feel the characters’ environment on every page. (First – sincere apologies for the grammar in this paragraph, but I just can’t force myself to adhere to The Rules tonight.) One of the things I like the most about Briggs’s writing is how rich in detail it is. Cry Wolf is set in Mercy’s world and focuses on the leader of all the American werewolves – the Marrok – and his pack, of which Charles and Anna, our hero and heroine, are part. ![]() Unless those opposed to the revelation get their way. And, soon, werewolves will be part of the known universe. “Normal” people are slowly being introduced to the not so normal – fae, vampires, etc. With the Mercy Thompson books, Briggs created a world where the paranormal is beginning to take hold in everyday life. It looks like I’ll be waiting, equally impatient, for future releases in the “Anna and Charles” series. I wait, very impatiently, for each new Mercy release. Patricia Briggs has been on my very short list of favorite writers ever since I read the first book in the Mercy Thompson series, Moon Called, in February 2006.
