Patricia Briggs Frost Burned Sneak Peak

Patricia Briggs writes the very popular urban fantasy series about Mercy Thompson.  I stumbled across these books when I pulled out my much loved copy of Masques and thought "Hmmm, wonder if she wrote anything else?"  Then with the help of my Kindle, who from here after shall be known as Temptress of Evil, I found a whole world of books written by this talented author.

The newest book in the Mercy Thompson series will be released soon, called Frost Burned.  I'm giggly with anticipation, and today I stumbled across a sneak peak that I'll share:





March 5th ladies and gents.  I. Can't. Wait.  !!!


If you are unfamiliar with Patricia Briggs check out her blog at www.patriciabriggs.com and be sure to stop by her Facebook page at Patricia Briggs


Patricia Briggs’ blog is social, natural, consistent, and diverse, all the good tag words associated with a successful blog.

 She regularly participates in chat room discussions with fans.  Providing her readers an opportunity to discuss characters and plot developments with each other.  Sharing their insights on her novels and maybe getging sneak peaks into what makes them tick from the lady herself.

I love how involved her whole family is with the blog.  It is not just a “professional” site, cold and impersonal.  There are posts from her family as well.  My favorite is from her daughter talking about how mom forgot to join the chat room and promised to show up later.  J  How easily I can relate to that, getting caught up in life and forgetting important events.  Like sending a birthday present to your Goddaughter and niece…. Oh wait, that was me…  Yikes!


You will find regularly updated status reports on book releases and tours posted as well.  No Ohio stops, yet.  * Fingers Crossed * 

Overall I found the blog charming and approachable with lots of great tidbits including chances to win copies of her soon-to-be-released novel.  And if you have problems, just ask for help.  I was really impressed with the level of communication when one fan was having issues accessing the sweepstakes entry.  They stuck with the fan until they found a solution; use a PC instead of a smart phone.

To end on a funny:  Here is a photo of her kitty, expressing her enjoyment of a good book in a very feline manor.  Yes folks, that is a draft of the new book Frost Burned or at least it WAS!  ;)
