Mercy Blade

Mercy Blade (2011) Faith Hunter

Book three in the Jane Yellowrock series, finds Jane taking on a long term contract with Leo Pellissier and the New Orleans vamps to provide security.

Unfortunately, Leo doesn’t seem to trust her enough to tell her things that are important–like the weres coming out of the supernatural closet and a meeting of this group of African weres with the New Orleans vamps.

Upon further reflection, I’m not sure why the African weres chose to meet with Leo. There isn’t a lot of logic to it, unless they have a beef with European vamps, which theoretically, they might, but still. And I’m not a huge fan of Rick, so I don’t love Jane and Rick being an item. But then, I never really think that strong female characters need boinking attachments.

Another cover where Jane is in a strong position, but still–what is the deal with the bras? And this model definitely looks European and not Native American. But at least she’s posed strongly.
Rating: 7/10
