"Anything that Patty Briggs is writing is FANTASTIC. This is closer in nature to her writing Masques than it is to the Mercy Thompson series. A fun book about the awakening of old power and the reinvention of self. I would recommend if you are someone who loves a good fantasy story that keeps you guessing. It is not a book that will change your life, but thoroughly enjoyable."
