Shifter's Wolf
by Patricia Briggs

Includes her debut novel Masques and its sequel Wolfsbane—together in one volume

Before there was Mercy Thompson... In a world far removed from the Alpha and Omega werewolves... There was the shapeshifting mercenary Aralorn.

Masques (originally published January 2010 in trade paperback and October 2010 in mass market paperback)
After an upbringing of proper behavior and oppressive expectations, Aralorn has fled her noble birthright for a life of adventure as a mercenary spy. Her latest mission involves gathering intelligence on the increasingly charismatic and dangerous sorcerer Geoffrey ae’Magi. But in a war against an adversary armed with the power of illusion, how do you know who the true enemy is—or where he will strike next?

Wolfsbane (originally published November 2010 in mass market paperback)
For the last ten years, Aralorn has led a dangerous existence. Now she must return home, for her noble father, the Lyon of Lambshold, has passed away. But when Aralorn and her companion Wolf arrive, they find that not only is he not dead, but a darkness is very much alive within him...

Patricia Briggs' Bio

Actually, I haven't written a biography at this point in time. They seem, well, narcissistic. I suppose there might be people who are interested in my pets, family and fashion tips, but somehow I doubt there's very many of them!

On the other hand, several people have taken the time to interview me regarding my work. Their questions are well phrased and thoughtful, and I often had to really think to frame an accurate response. So, in lieu of the customary biography, I present you said interviews.
