Shifting Shadows – Patricia Briggs

I managed to find this in the library’s ebook selection after I started Cry Wolf, and quickly realized there was a bit of the story missing. (Turns out to be “Alpha and Omega” in this book).

I really enjoyed the stories here – it’s a wide range of time frames, including all the way back to when Bran and Samuel were first made wolves, long enough ago that even they don’t exactly remember the time. That story, “Silver”, is also about when Samuel and Ariana first meet, and is lovely, and heartbreaking.

I enjoyed Ben’s story, and it definitely gave him some needed back story. It was also nice to see some outtakes from certain books that didn’t make it in because they weren’t from Mercy’s point of view. This is definitely a must read if you like the Mercy Thompson series.
