In this instalment in the No. 1 New York Times bestselling series, Mercy Thompson must face a deadly enemy to defend all she loves . . .
My name is Mercedes Athena Thompson Hauptman, and I am a car mechanic.
And a coyote shapeshifter . . . And the mate of the Alpha of the Columbia Basin werewolf pack.
Even so, none of that would have gotten me into trouble if, a few months ago, I hadn't stood upon a bridge and taken responsibility for the safety of the citizens who lived in our territory. It seemed like the thing to do at the time. It should have only involved hunting down killer goblins, zombie goats and an occasional troll. Instead, our home was viewed as neutral ground, a place where humans would feel safe to come and treat with the fae.
The reality is that nothing and no one is safe. As generals and politicians face off with the Gray Lords of the fae, a storm is coming and her name is Death.
But we are pack, and we have given our word. We will die to keep it.

I just love this set of characters and Wulfe is hilarious.
I've got to be honest, the humans are starting to become kind of annoying haha. Always so wary. I mean, come on people, the fae, werewolves, witches and stuff have been around for centuries! If they wanted to kill all of you off, they would have done it by now, heavens!

As for the actual story, it was excellent. Possibly one of my favorites. Some resolution in the pack, a surprising death (no spoilers) and...miniature zombie goats. I mean...how cute? In a weirdly terrifying sort of way? AND THERE WAS EVEN A...well...I *did* say no spoilers, didn't I. Hm. So anyway - loved this one. And, as usual, can't wait for the next one already.

I think Storm Cursed was too plot driven with not enough development. Everything is sort of felt rehashed and warmed over, like sticking last night's dinner in the microwave. I mean, I'll still listen to the next installment, because I feel like once you've heard the first 11 books in the series, you kind of have to ride it out. Hopefully Briggs will be able to get the series back on track and remember why we love it in the first place (Mercy!).
