Book 36: Silence Fallen

Silence Fallen is the tenth book in Patricia Briggs' popular Mercy Thompson series.  Mercy makes a quick run for eggs and chocolate chips and gets kidnapped by the Lord of Night.  The book alternates narrator between Mercy and Adam as Mercy escapes and tries to survive while Adam, Marsilia, and others try to negotiate with the Lord of Night in order to ensure the long-term safety of the supernatural of the Tri-Cities.  As usual vampires as the villains results in a lot of overly complex vampire drama, but the addition of the golum with Mercy in Prague was intriguing twist.

Like all Mercy Thompson books, this one contains plenty of back and forth witty character dialogue, a now solid relationship between Adam and Mercy that provides each with the strength to handle their portion of the plot, and enough actions to keep the reader's interest from beginning to end.  5 stars.
