Masques

By Patricia Briggs

208 pages

Aralorn is a spy who has a little magic at her disposal. The setting is a little vague, the reader is sort of thrown into the story but it works out. Aralorn has two companions: her horse and Wolf who she rescued. Wolf looks like a wolf but he can talk so there is more to that story. I really enjoyed it and if you've read her other novels definitely read this one too.

Masques is the first novel published by Patricia Briggs and I think it shows the great writing she was capable of. I love her Mercy Thompson series and Masques is just a good in its own way. It is kind of a fantasy/sword and sorcery novel with a strong female main character. I reallly liked and and will be reading the sequel soon.
