Summary

'I didn't realize he was a werewolf at first. My nose isn't at its best when surrounded by axle grease and burnt oil....'

Mercedes Thompson runs a garage in the Tri-Cities. She's a mechanic, and a damn good one, who spends her spare time karate training and tinkering with a VW bus that happens to belong to a vampire. Her next-door neighbour is an alpha werewolf - literally the leader of the pack. And Mercy herself is a shapeshifter, sister to coyotes. As such she's tolerated by the 'wolves but definitely down the pecking order. As long as she keeps her eyes down and remembers her place, the pack will leave her in peace.

"I enjoyed every minute of it. I love Mercy and can't wait for her to kick some more ass." (Lilith Saintcrow)

A Good Book

This is a good book. but I found it took way to long to get to the point of the plot.
worth reading, I will be reading the 2nd with the hope
Ms Briggs gets to the point a lot quicker.

couldn't stop listening

really enjoyed this book. its ages I 'read' this kind of title. I used to listen to a lot of Molly Harper so it's nice to find another author I enjoy. a very easy listen

the story skipped in a couple of places by a few seconds - dodgy editing I guess, but mot enough to miss any of the story.

Loved it

I love this book so much I now have it in hardback, kindle and audio it is one of my favourites as you can see. Lorelei King really brought the story to life fabulous job. Overall no way will I be returning a book that is not only written by a great storyteller but read by a fabulous narrator.

Very enjoyable book very well narrated

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes - it has a good story, the principle character is very likeable and the narration is excellent

What other book might you compare Moon Called to, and why?

Its in the same lines as the Sookie Stackhouse ( but without the sex) and Jane Yellowrock ( our heroine is also a shifter ) stories. It is set in our world but where Vampires and Werewolves and other Fey characters are very active. There are some subtle differences and the Werewolves have a bigger role than Vampires in this book - bit of a hint in the title there. If you like the Stackhouse/Yellowrock books you will probably like this

Have you listened to any of Lorelei King’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Not yet but I will and hope she is as good in those

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Made me laugh in a few places

Any additional comments?

Enjoyed it and will be downloading the next book in the series soon

Great easy to listen to book

Great narrator and an entertaining story. Love the lead character - no nonsense and good sense of humour. Will have to listen to the rest now!

Moon Called

This is the first book in the series, I have listened to it many times and it gets better with each listen. Lorelei King has a great voice to listen to all day long. Love all the books in this series and Alpha and Omega series which runs along side this one.
