Fire Touched (Mercy Thompson, #9)

Mercy Thompson has been hailed as “a heroine who...always remains true to herself” (Library Journal). Now she’s back, and she’ll soon discover that when the fae stalk the human world, it’s the children who suffer...
 
Tensions between the fae and humans are coming to a head. And when coyote shapeshifter Mercy and her Alpha werewolf mate, Adam, are called upon to stop a rampaging troll, they find themselves with something that could be used to make the fae back down and forestall out-and-out war: a human child stolen long ago by the fae.
 
Defying the most powerful werewolf in the country, the humans, and the fae, Mercy, Adam, and their pack choose to protect the boy no matter what the cost. But who will protect them from a boy who is fire touched?

Quick Thoughts

1. Not the best Mercy book but still a great addition.
2. I was a little disappointed that we didn't see many of the other wolves or other characters we love. I know there's a lot though and it's hard to write them all in. All I'm asking is that we see more of them next time!
3. I think I'm happy with how things are turning out with the pack. I like that they're growing as humans and as wolves.
4. The plot didn't suck me in quite as much as the other books did. The start was great but then the ending climax wasn't as exciting as it should have been. It was a little bland.
5. It's still a Mercy book so it's hard not to love it. It was still great, just not quite as good as the other books.
