Mercedes "Mercy" Thompson is a talented Volkswagen mechanic living in the Tri-Cities area of Washington. She also happens to be a walker, a magical being with the power to shift into a coyote at will. Mercy's next-door neighbor is a werewolf. Her former boss is a gremlin. And she's fixing a bus for a vampire. This is the world of Mercy Thompson, one that looks a lot like ours but is populated by those things that go bump in the night. And Mercy's connection to those things is about to get her into some serious hot water.

Mercy Thomson book 1 submitted by pamhockey25 on July 9, 2018, 11:01pm I love the character and want to see where this series takes her. I really enjoyed the community that Mercy lives in and the other supernatural beings she encounters and interacts with. I found the book compelling and hard to put down. I can't wait to read more!
Great urban fantasy submitted by Jinxyluis on July 22, 2018, 4:07pm This book way exceeded my expectations and I'm super excited about reading more of the series. The concepts of the world are intriguing and set up great dramatic scenes. Mercy is a really excellent protagonist, and shares the stage with many other lovable characters. I didn't even mind the romantic bits, I think owing to the way Mercy feels refreshingly grown up in her relationships
Love this series! submitted by eileenw on July 17, 2022, 4:37pm This is a GREAT urban fantasy series. Meet Mercedes, the BMW mechanic, who isn't a werewolf but grew up alongside them so she's no stranger to their secret world. If you're considering reading this series -- DO IT. I hope you'll love it as much as I do.
