In the

Mercy Thompson novels, the coyote shapeshifter has found her voice in the
werewolf pack. But when Mercy's bond with the pack and her mate is broken,
she'll learn what it truly means to be alone...
Attacked
and abducted in her home territory, Mercy finds herself in the clutches of the
most powerful vampire in the world, taken as a weapon to use against alpha
werewolf Adam and the ruler of the Tri-Cities vampires. In coyote form, Mercy
escapes only to find herself without money, without clothing, and alone in the
heart of Europe...
Unable to

fight, and she needs to figure out which is which. Ancient powers stir, and
Mercy must be her agile best to avoid causing a war between vampires and
werewolves, and between werewolves and werewolves. And in the heart of the
ancient city of Prague, old ghosts rise...

Liza’s Review:
The Mercy Thompson series from Patricia Briggs is one of those
series I both have to read the book and listen to the audiobook as soon as
it is released. I absolutely adore everything about the Mercy Thompson series. Silence Fallen is the first book to give
the reader the point of view from both Mercy and Adam. While it took a bit
for me to get used to it with the audiobook, I did like having both points of
view and even ended up liking having two different narrators.
I enjoyed Silence Fallen
and thought it was a great addition to the Mercy Thompson series. Since Mercy
was kidnapped and separated from Adam from much of the book, I did miss
the connection and time with them. I did really love how strong Mercy was
though everything she had to deal with in Italy and Prague. Honestly if there
was ever a character who has the right to totally breakdown, it is Mercy, but
she remains as strong as ever.
I also enjoyed watching Adam have to team up with the
vampires to help him rescue Mercy. Adam usually has Mercy as a buffer when
dealing with the vampires, but I enjoyed seeing the vampires work
with Adam and his werewolves to deal with one of the world's strongest vampires
so they could finally find Mercy. As the book goes back and forth between
Adam's and Mercy's points of view, and not on a solid timeline, I liked that
Mercy gave updates before each chapter to let the readers know where we were in
the story.
Silence
Fallen was another winner in the Mercy Thompson series. Again, while I
missed Mercy and Adam being together the entire book, I did like seeing both
characters grow more in this book. I also got many unexpected laughs from Silence Fallen and feel like Doctor Who
fans will as well.
