“A full cast of creatures—including a shape-shifting coyote, werewolves, vampires, fae, the local witch, and humans—are depicted by a talented cast of voice actors. Most impressive is Khaya Fraites, who takes on the role of first-person narrator Mercy Thompson, a plucky 20-something mechanic and shape-shifter. Joyous yips, howls, and growls create a clever soundscape that also includes clicking claws and ethereal music.” Read more...
“This is an urban fantasy series about a coyote shapeshifter named Mercy Thompson. She works as a mechanic in the Tri-Cities area of Washington state. These books initially straddle the line between open magic and secret magic. The fae are the only-non human group that is currently ‘out’ as the series starts, but there are also vampires, werewolves, witches, and other magic creatures going bump in the night, so to speak. Mercy is a mechanic, both literally and figuratively speaking. She fixes cars—primarily Volkswagens—and solves paranormal problems between the various factions in this Tri-Cities area. In the first book, Mercy helps a werewolf who shows up at her shop looking for work. It turns out he is being chased by evil people who want to run experiments on him.” Read more...
