About this book
THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
Mercy Thompson, car mechanic and shapeshifter, must stop a disaster of world-shattering proportions in this exhilarating entry in the 1 New York Times bestselling series.
In the supernatural realms, there are creatures who belong to winter. I am not one of them. But like the coyote I can become at will, I am adaptable.
My name is Mercy Thompson Hauptman, and my mate, Adam, is the werewolf who leads the Columbia Basin Pack, the pack charged with keeping the people who live and work in the Tri-Cities of Washington State safe. It’s a hard job, and it doesn’t leave much room for side quests. Which is why when I needed to travel to Montana to help my brother, I intended to go by myself.
But I’m not alone anymore.
Together, Adam and I find ourselves trapped with strangers in a lodge in the heart of the wilderness, in the teeth of a storm of legendary power, only to discover my brother’s issues are a tiny part of a problem much bigger than we could have imagined. Arcane and ancient magics are at work that could, unless we are very careful, bring about the end of the world. . . .

Book 14 in the Mercy Thompson series, I do recommend reading the books in series order (along with the interconnected Alpha & Omega series) for the best experience, as there is a lot of history built up over the course of the series. At the very least, you should read Soul Taken before this, as events there have a direct impact on what’s happening with the main characters here. For my money, Patricia Briggs is one of the best writers out there, and I love the way she incorporates various...

With clever writing, smart characters, and a delicious plot filled with danger and mystery, WINTER LOST is a definite must-read and a true keeper. I can't wait to see what Patricia Briggs comes up with next! Patricia Briggs does it again, absolutely knocks it out of the park with this fourteenth volume in the Mercy Thompson series. Mercy has faced a lot of danger since mating Adam and joining the pack. It's not enough she's got the lord of all vampires making obscene phone calls while reminding...

4 stars - It was really good When Gary shows up cursed, Mercy and Adam head to Montana to try and figure out what happened and remove the curse. What they don’t expect is to find themself trapped with strangers in a lodge due to a winter storm powered by magic and trying to stop another end of the world crisis. Unlike the previous books in this series, this one isn’t focused on fae or vampire concerns and doesn’t involve the whole pack, only Adam and Mercy. Adam and Mercy travel to Montana and...

Spoiler free review. At first I was thrown by the novel approach to this book- Mercy's books have never switched perspective this much. But I quickly found myself loving getting to see into the heads of so many characters, both established and new, and enjoying how each interlude played with the dramatic tension. I loved the humor- it felt good to laugh after the last few books had sent the stakes in Mercy's world up so high. I loved the heartwarming parts, and getting to see so many different...

Once again, Patricia Briggs has blended urban fantasy, action, suspense, and a little romance into another fantastic novel. Winter Lost is the fourteenth book in the Mercy Thompson series.

When Mercy needs to help her half-brother Gary in Montana, they find themselves trapped with strangers at the Looking Glass Hot Springs lodge. This isn't an ordinary...
