Book Review: Iron Kissed
Strong female lead. Felt a little unhurried and cavalier through most of the story and then wrapped up with an intense, almost hurried, climactic scene. Thankfully the author handled the topic as sensitively as possible and with the judicious use of deus ex machina explanations we get to the end of the book with our sense of belief still intact.
Iron Kissed by Patricia Briggs
Like another series with a similarly strong female lead, I enjoy the mix of plot and personal relationship exploration. Unlike the other series, I am much happier with the way this author addresses the topic of… let’s say “intimacy.” (The somewhat archaic “fade to black” with some good hints “the next day” about what happened the previous night.)
This is the third book in the Mercy Thompson series of books, a series of paranormal mystery. If you like Jim Butcher’s Dresdel Files, I think you’ll love this.
**** (4/5) stars.
