#BookFaceFriday “Storm Cursed” by Patricia Briggs
Brace yourself, it’s #BookFaceFriday!
There’s nothing like reading by candlelight, or maybe in this case, by the light of your e-reader. Batten the hatches during the next Nebraska storm with a good book. This week’s #BookFace would be an excellent book to escape into; “Storm Cursed” by Patricia Briggs, is book eleven in Brigg’s Mercy Thompson series. This supernatural shapeshifter series combines adventure, wit, and magic. It’s available as both an eBook and audiobook in Nebraska OverDrive Libraries, along with fourteen other books in the Mercy Thompson series.
“This story brings together a lot of seemingly unrelated plot threads from past novels in a way that feels organic and that doesn’t impede the pacing of the current mystery. Fans of the series will enjoy this solid addition, but new readers might find that there’s too much history to make this story work as an ingress point.” —Publishers Weekly
“Patricia Briggs never fails to deliver an exciting, magic and fable filled suspense story.” – Erin Watt, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Royals series
This week’s model is one of the newer additions to the Nebraska Library Commission. Welcome, Veronica Powell, as our new Cataloging Librarian!
