SF Site

There was something about the Jane Yellowrock series that drew me in from the very beginning. That hunch was solidified with each book I read into a feeling of utter confidence in the author.... Mercy Blade is top-notch, a five-star book!

Night Owl Reviews

I was delighted to have the opportunity to read another Jane Yellowrock adventure. I was not disappointed, but was somewhat overwhelmed by the obvious growth in Faith Hunters writing skill.

San Francisco Book Review

A thrilling novel... Fans of suspenseful tales filled with vampires, weres, and more will enjoy this book. Jane is a strong heroine who knows how to take charge of a situation, and kick butt if necessary.

Romance Reviews Today

Faith Hunter has created one of my favorite characters, ever. Jane Yellowrock is full of contradictions.... As with the other books in the series, good and evil are far from clear-cut, with sympathetic villains and many fascinating characters with shades of gray. Highly recommended.

Fresh Fiction

Mystery and action are at the forefront here, but the romance from the first book continues to build slowly. Readers eager for the next book in Patricia Briggss Mercy Thompson series may want to give Faith Hunter a try.

Library Journal

In a genre flooded with strong, sexy females, Jane Yellowrock is unique.... Her bold first-person narrative shows that shes one tough cookie, but with a likable vulnerability... a pulse-pounding, page-turning adventure.

A fantastic start to the Jane Yellowrock series. Mixing fantasy with a strong mystery story line and a touch of romance, it ticks all the right urban fantasy boxes.

Stunning... plot and descriptions so vivid, they might as well be pictures or videos. Hunter captures the readers attention from the first page and doesnt let go.

SF Site

A fabulous tale with a heroine who clearly has the strength to stand on her own... a wonderfully detailed and fast-moving adventure that fills the pages with murder, mystery, and fascinating characters.

Continuing the story begun in Bloodring, Hunter expands on her darkly alluring vision of a future in which the armies of good and evil wage their eternal struggle in the world of flesh and blood. Strong characters and a compelling story.
