Recommended Read

CW: graphic violence and torture Dear Patricia Briggs, Soul Taken mostly doesn’t reference the events in Wild Sign and certainly not in a spoilery way. But it’s clear that this book takes place at around the same time as or just after the epilogue in last year’s release. Something that ... more >
