Unfortunately, he wants to hold a war council. Fortunately, Goblin King Larry shows up to help them defeat this enemy. Only when they get there, it’s not the guy known as The Soldier waiting for them but a fae monster and its creepy handler. Since they know no one in the pack has touched Wulfe, Adam and Mercy head to the home of the only friend they have in the vampire seethe, Stefan, for information. Since everybody knows he has been stalking Mercy and that Adam has been less than pleased by that, Adam’s Columbia Basin Werewolf Pack will be held responsible for the disappearance and war will break out between the wolves and vampires unless Wulfe is found/returned. What she has to say is even less so – Wulfe is missing. They had been trying to have a quiet conversation with Sherwood Post at Uncle Mike’s, and Marsilia’s intrusion is most assuredly not welcome. When Vampire Queen Marsilia appears in the fireplace, dressed like a goth witch and with smoke swirling around her like some monster in a B movie, Adam and Mercy aren’t pleased.

My review will not just contain oodles of spoilers for the previous books but may well sound like gibberish to those unfamiliar with this fictional universe. There’s some really intensive world-building here, and the stories should only be read in order. Soul Taken is the thirteenth book in the Mercy Thompsonseries and the nineteenth book in the Mercyverse.
