Description
"A new hardcover in the acclaimed Mercy Thompson series--from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fire Touched. Attacked and abducted in her home territory, Mercy finds herself in the clutches of the most powerful vampire in the world, taken as a weapon to use against alpha werewolf Adam and the ruler of the Tri-Cities vampires. In coyote form, Mercy escapes--only to find herself without money, without clothing, and alone in the heart of Europe... Unable to contact Adam and the rest of the pack, Mercy has allies to find and enemies to fight, and she needs to figure out which is which. Ancient powers stir, and Mercy must be her agile best to avoid causing a war between vampires and werewolves, and between werewolves and werewolves. And in the heart of the ancient city of Prague, old ghosts rise..."--… (more)

This series is consistently strong. I could read the whole series over from book one. Actually, I want to do that.
I love Mercy's strength, courage, cleverness, magic, and her trickster heritage. I love Adam's loyalty and devotion and his wolf. I love the web of friendships and community they've
Such a fun read. I loved being able to get lost in a book again - stayed up too late reading more than once, in a crazy busy week that really could have done with more sleep.
A surprise at the end made me re-read several scenes looking for hints. My read is this was truly a surprise to almost all the characters, but I'd really like to ask the author about that if I ever got the chance.

I was so excited to read a new Mery Thompson. I read it in a few hours. I love this series. Silence Fallen was amazing. I literally couldn't put it down. I love all the old characters and enjoyed meeting a few new ones. Patricia Briggs does not disappoint.

Wow. I like Mercy - mostly - but this may be the best one yet. Pretty standard start, with Mercy attacked and kidnapped (Mercy's in trouble, so what else is new). The villain is new and...complicated. But the whole thing with Mercy loose in Europe, and tripping over a whole bunch of unfinished

matters there, is great. Particularly the bit Gary Laughingdog left for her - sheesh! Libor is also a very complicated person - there are a lot of them in this story. Old supernaturals tend to get that way. A lot of not quite saying what's expressed, a lot of outright manipulation. I am highly amused to think that with all the plots within plots, Coyote had the last word (or first), without even being there. A very rich story; a lot of insight into some characters who have been around the whole time, and some who are newer. The jumping back and forth in time only bothered me once - when we get two Mercy chapters (intentionally) out of order; that was annoying. Cheating, sort of - done purely for the cliffhanger. The rest was pretty clear (and yes, the chapter headings helped). Bran's part was interesting, but I was annoyed - that was author fiat. I'm not sure who was fooled and who was just going along with it. I was definitely fooled, though I did notice he was older and had more tricks up his sleeve than appeared at first. Love it, makes me want to read more in this series...I may do a partial reread, at that. Show Less

The latest Mercy Thompson novel finds Mercy kidnapped by vampires, taken to Italy, and dropped right in the middle of a bunch of twisted plots. She is alone, cut off from her mate bond by magic, and at the mercy of a very old vampire. She manages to escape and then finds herself alone in Italy
Meanwhile, once Adam knows where she is, he assembles a team to go to Italy to get her back - no matter what it takes.
I loved catching up with a lot of the characters I have come to love in the earlier books in this series. I love the strong relationship between Mercy and Adam. I also love the strong relationships that Mercy has with a number of her friends from all the various supernatural groups. This episode had a lot of vampire politics woven into it and explained a lot more about the politics that has turned the Tri-Cities and the Columbia Basin Pack into a safe zone for supernaturals.
This was a fast-paced, action-filled novel that kept me reading late into the night.

I’ve enjoyed every book in the Mercy series, some more than others. This quickly rose to the top as one of my favorites. I like when Mercy gets embroiled in supernatural politics and the story has as much intrigue and guile as action scenes.
Mercy gets kidnapped by a big bad vampire – one who is
One of the best things about this character is that despite getting into so much trouble, Mercy is never just a damsel in distress. She has agency, and it’s recognized by other characters. This story moved at a brisk pace, with excellent character interactions and solid action scenes. Highly recommended.

equivalent to the Marrok in influence and power. Since she is separated from Adam for much of the book, so Briggs handles this by having the story alternate between his and Mercy’s POV. I liked this a lot because it provided a different perspective on events.

SILENCE FALLEN proves that time and again, Mercy Thompson is a delight to tag along with. Even after all these years, Briggs manages to surprise and enthrall with every page. While SILENCE FALLEN reads more like a "monster of the week"
Mercy's pack has expanded to the point where sometimes I need a few reminders to remember the newer members, but that brief orientation didn't slow down this story a whit. I was particularly pleased by how quickly (and smoothly) Mercy was operating with autonomy, something this independent coyote does best. I didn't expect the "big bads", and found both the magic and political aspects of the story delightful. It's hard to go into detail without spoilers, but fans of the series will find SILENCE FALLEN to be an exercise in both Mercy's and Adam's strengths, with a more than a few cameos and surprises thrown in for spice.
A wonderful romp, Mercy is a joy to follow as she problem solves, charms, and slips her way through trouble. Much like Ilona Andrews, Briggs lavishes detail in her world building, which will thrill both process nerds and history buffs alike.

SILENCE FALLEN had a different feel to me than the other books in the Mercy Thompson series. For most of the book, Mercy is on her own as she escapes her kidnapper and navigates a country she doesn't know on the path to safety. It started off really slow, but did pick up speed and explored some of
I was constantly left in suspense and the twists and turns thrown into SILENCE FALLEN were spectacular. The allies that come along for the ride to save Mercy couldn't have been better picked and I enjoyed reading from Adam's POV throughout the story—although I like the couple much better when they aren't apart.
We have been through TEN Mercy books so far, I hope we get many many more. I enjoyed the different environment that SILENCE FALLEN brought to the table, but I really do look forward to seeing Mercy back on her home turf again and among her pack.

Loved this book! It was great to read chapters from Adam's perspective, and to see him getting outside of his comfort zone with some vampire diplomacy. Not all of my favourite characters were in it, but the ones who were were at their best, particularly Honey, Marsilia, Elizaveta, and Matt Smith
I would have liked to see more of a build-up around the Golem, but I also thought it was appropriate that his place in the plot was a surprise, and I'm not sure it would have been possible to have both of those things at once. I missed the presence of the Pack, particularly Ben and Warren, but it was definitely the right choice not to try to shoehorn too many of them into the main plot. I'm sure they'll be back in the next novel (Storm Cursed, coming out March 2019!)

This book! Oh how I loved this book. This is such an amazing series that seems to be getting better and better with each book. I started reading this book the moment I had it downloaded on my ereader and finished it less than 24 hours later. I just couldn't put it down. I had to know that things
This is the tenth book in the Mercy Thompson series which I do recommend reading in order. The relationships between the characters have grown and developed over the course of the series and readers really need that knowledge to get the most out of this book. The series is absolutely amazing so you really don't want to miss any of it anyway.
This story is a little different than what I have come to expect from this series. Different in a good way though. Much of this book occurs away from home and I have to admit that this worried me. Have no fear. The awesomeness of this series is still there it just happens in a different location. The key characters from the series all do play a part in this book even though it occurs far from home. I actually think that the change in setting was a plus in this book since it added a new and unknown element.
Another difference that I was thrilled to see in this book is that part of the story is told from Adam's point of view. I was incredibly excited to get to read some of this story from Adam's perspective. We have had the opportunity to see so much of Adam over the course of the series and I found it really nice to finally get to spend some time in his head. This story really only would work well with another point of view and I am really glad that it came from Adam.
This book starts off with a bang. Actually, it starts off with cookies and then quickly gets exciting when Mercy is kidnapped and taken halfway around the world to Prague. Mercy is thought to be very powerful by her kidnappers and she must figure out how to outsmart them in order to save herself. The kidnappers have a head start but Adam isn't too far behind and he is willing to do what it takes to save his mate. There are some pretty awesome vampires, werewolves, and ghosts among other things. There were a few surprises along the way and at least one twist that totally floored me.
I would highly recommend this book to others. This is a book that I will definitely be reading again. Probably quite a few times. This is a truly great series that is dear to my heart. I can't wait to read more books about Mercy, Adam, and the gang as soon as I can get my hands on them.

Attacked and abducted in her home territory, Mercy finds herself in the clutches of the most powerful vampire in the world, taken as a weapon to use against alpha werewolf Adam and the ruler of the Tri-Cities vampires. In coyote form, Mercy escapes—only to find herself without money, without clothing, and alone in the heart of Europe.
