Mercy Blade

This installment in the Jane Yellowrock series delves even deeper into the supernatural lore of the world as weres come out of the closet. It was kind of sad to see the short romance between Rick and Jane so quickly and spectacularly throughout the book. The investigative aspect in this installment was perplexing and invigorating to unravel as Jane got more and more clues to solve the big murder mystery.

I have to say that the only bad thing about this installment–that I have also seen in previous installments–is the overly descriptive writing style. While at times it helps with setting up the backdrop of the city of New Orleans and the further reaches of the state of Louisiana very well, it also pulls me out of the story when there's a page-long description of something nonsensical and not part of the plot-line at all.

Also not a huge fan of the cliffhanger but it does entice me enough to buy the multitude of side short stories about the world that are available.
