Frost Burned audiobook review: When your in-laws get kidnapped, but make it supernatural
Let me get this straight - you're settling into married life, trying to navigate the whole stepmom thing, and suddenly your entire wolf pack family vanishes into thin air? Tell me that's not every newlywed's worst nightmare come to life.
Patricia Briggs delivers another Mercy Thompson adventure that's equal parts domestic chaos and supernatural mayhem. Our beloved mechanic-turned-werewolf-mate finds herself completely cut off from her supernatural support network after a traffic accident that seems suspiciously convenient. I mean, when was the last time bumper-to-bumper traffic led to a full-scale pack abduction?
The real genius here is how Briggs balances the extraordinary with the utterly relatable. Mercy's panic about her missing mate Adam isn't just about the supernatural bond they share - it's the very human fear of losing someone you love when you're utterly powerless to help. Throw in the added pressure of being Jesse's stepmom and suddenly you've got a recipe for either a really bad day or a really good urban fantasy.
What makes this audiobook particularly delicious is how Mercy must venture beyond her usual circles for help. Imagine having to call in favors from creatures you'd rather avoid on your best day - it's like asking your ex's weird cousin for help when your in-laws go missing, except the cousin might literally eat you.
Briggs has this knack for making the supernatural feel as routine as changing oil, and Frost Burned is no exception. The political tensions within the werewolf community add layers of complexity that go well beyond simple monster-on-monster violence. This isn't just about things that go bump in the night - it's about family, loyalty, and what happens when your chosen tribe gets yanked away from you.
The audiobook format really shines here, especially during Mercy's more sarcastic moments. You can practically hear the eye-rolls and imagine the exasperated expressions as she navigates a world where nothing goes according to plan and everyone has hidden agendas.
Frost Burned proves once again that Briggs understands something fundamental about urban fantasy - the monsters are just family members with better dental work and worse tempers.
