Icons - Mercy Thompson
Sep. 1st, 2010 03:33 amThis set is mainly from the 'Homecoming' comic book. It's a prequel to the urban fantasy book series by Patricia Briggs that starts with 'Moon Called'. The series is called Mercedes (or Mercy) Thompson from the name of it's protagonist. Who is an awesome heroine, by the way. She's tough but not unrealistically so. She is physically weaker than most characters she interacts with but she's smart and knows when to ask for help. She's part Native American and a walker (coyote shapeshifter, basicaly). The plots are interesting and there's suspense in every book (there are 5 so far), the heroine makes mistakes and has to pay the price, and the almost obligatory in this genre love triangle isn't painful to read and gets resolved well enough and fairly soon. So I definitely recommend the books. Awesome werewolves that actually are thought out (the good and the bad of actually changing into an animal), vampires of the scary type, witches and fae.
As for comics, there's the prequel and the word is out there's more planned - the first book is being adapted to comics.
