Books by Mercedes Lackey
Invasion (2012)
language
English
3.35 of 5 Votes: 4
review 1: This was a weird book as I suppose any book about superheroes battling space nazi's would be. It was enjoyable and well written I think because it knew exactly how silly it was without resorting to hamming it up too much. I was a bit confused though why at one point we abandoned ...
Arcanum 101 (2012)

English
3.23 of 5 Votes: 3
review 1: I had no idea when I started reading this it was a YA book as I didn't realize the Humble Bundles included those. So I was way outside this book's target demo to begin with. But it was pretty straightforward and predictable. Mostly I found it distracting that the main character s...
Elementary: All-New Tales of the Elemental Masters (Elemental Masters) (2013)
language
English
3.47 of 5 Votes: 2
review 1: A collection of stories set in Lackey's Elemental Masters series world, with magic workers divided by the four elements: air, water, earth, fire, though some can work with more than one. 19 stories including one new one from Lackey. As with any collection, quality varies.Stories ...

review 1: Let's just say that I sort of anticipated Loch to be gay. I thought he was either going to be a bad guy or gay. I must say I am very happy that he is the latter. This was a great book. I enjoyed it a lot. I am mind blown due to the fight during the dance. However, I would think t...
Finding the Way and Other Tales of Valdemar (2010)
language
English
3.92 of 5 Votes: 5
review 1: This is another excellent selection of stories set in Mercedes Lackey's world of Valdemar, with a few excursions to other well-known locations such as Karse and the Dhorisha Plains. I enjoyed all of the stories greatly, and there is a good mix of lengths from a very short story ...
Shadow Grail #2: Conspiracies (2011)
language
English
series
3.57 of 5 Votes: 2
review 1: This is most definitely a YA book. That is not to disparage it but a caution that it may be a bit juvenile and if that turns you off , you should be aware of that fact. Spirit White is still magic-less at a pseudo Hogwarts Academy that appears to be infiltrated by the bad guys....
Under the Vale and Other Tales of Valdemar (2011)
language
English
3.93 of 5 Votes: 2
review 1: Basically a collection of fanfic from professional authors. I could have done without the sometimes heavy-handed commentary on contemporary social issues or the "moral" stories (or the incredibly uninteresting Ree/Jem stories), but I don't regret reading it. I did enjoy Larry D...
House of the Four Winds, The (2014)
language
English

review 1: I don't know about this one. I've never read this author before and since she is popular and prolific, people must like her books, but I did find this one a bit "lackey." (Please pardon the pun.)Since this is the first book of this author that I've read I don't know if this is re...
Closer to Home (The Herald Spy Book 1) (2014)
language
English
3.91 of 5 Votes: 3
review 1: This is an interesting twist on the Romeo and Juliet story. At one point, I almost put the book down because I was so anxious that there was no way the story could end well. I am a longtime Mercedes Lackey fan, so I pushed through trusting that she could and would "fix" everyth...
Moving Targets and Other Tales of Valdemar (2008)
language
English

review 1: This series of collections has falling into a steady rhythm - familiar contributors, mostly familiar stories. It's good, solid Valdemar stuff, and Heralds are particularly well-suited to episodic stories.The title story by Lackey is worth a note - it is, of all things, a Scooby-D...

review 1: Isabella Beauchamps watches over her young stepsisters and runs the household for her stepmother, until one night visiting Granny in the forest she is attacked by a great wolf. Bella fights back and survives the attack with no more than a wolf-bite. The next morning, though Bella...
Phoenix Transformed (2000)
language
English
3.85 of 5 Votes: 1
review 1: The Phoenix Transformed by Mercedes Lackey & James MalloryThis is book three of the Enduring Flame trilogy. I think it may be the best of the three. The previous two books are The Phoenix Endangered and The Phoenix Unchained . This book wraps up the trilogy quite nicely but ...
Intrigues (2010)
language
English
3.9 of 5 Votes: 2
review 1: Better than some Valdemar, worse than others. 2.5 stars really. Though at one point I kind of wanted to pull a Wade the Duck and run through the book screaming "Help, stupid plot twist, help!" I reassured myself that no, clearly the random utterly out of characterness of the pr...
Trio of Sorcery (Diana Tregarde, #0.5) (2010)
language
English

review 1: What can I say? There is nothing Mercedes Lackey has written that I don't like.
review 2: Three excellent novellas by three excellent novelists. As usual, I like the Diana Tregarde one best.

review 1: TRIO OF SORCERY contains three novellas by seasoned author Mercedes Lackey. She's known for strong heroines in her YA and Urban Fantasy novels, and the three main characters in TRIO are no exception. Each of the book's mysteries are shorter stories based on characters from Lackey...

review 1: Mercedes Lackey is one of my favourite authors. I have enjoyed rereading the three previous books in the series.I did correctly presume who was the reincarnated Guenivere, Spirit; however, I was only partially correct in identifying Arthur. I thought Burke was either he or Lance...

review 1: The final book in the series and the rest of the details unfold about the Shadow Knights and others. They learn that King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, the Knights of the Round Table and others really did live- and with the help of Merlin, they imprisoned Mordred... who managed to fr...
