While I really enjoyed [b:Moon Called|71811|Moon Called (Mercedes Thompson, #1)|Patricia Briggs|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1266465626s/71811.jpg|69530], Blood bound was even better. I loved learning more about Mercy while she learned more about herself, and the more detailed introduction to Briggs' vampires was also welcome. While still not a main character, Stefan's role was made much more interesting and I look forward to finding out what will happen with our maybe not so bad vamp.

The continuing tension with the Samuel/Adam/Mercy triangle is something I could live without. I completely believe the interest between Adam and Mercy, but I just don't feel the chemistry anymore with Samuel and it makes it hard to believe that she would choose him. Hopefully this will be resolved in the next book, but I don't mind it enough to deter me from continuing (and loving) the books if it's not.

I hope we learn more about Zee (and since the third book is titled [b:Iron Kissed|1412138|Iron Kissed (Mercedes Thompson, #3)|Patricia Briggs|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51mCQO8qoSL._SL75_.jpg|1178926], I'm guessing that we will) and would like to learn more of the Walkers' history.
