Silver Borne / Patricia Briggs

Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs. 342 pp.

Mercy Thompson is a coyote shapeshifter, a mechanic who owns her own garage. She's a fairly low-powered supernatural type, but she keeps getting involved with more high-powered beings around her. In this one (fifth in the series) she makes progress in her relationship with Adam, the local werewolves' Alpha, and his pack, and deals with a nasty fae. Unlike a lot of urban fantasy novels, Mercy isn't one of the heavy hitters in the setting, and while events that happen to her are connected to events that happened earlier, there's no overarching plot going on in the background, which is a nice change. I enjoyed this book a lot.
