Frequently asked questions
Do I need to read the previous books in the Mercy Thompson series before Night Broken?
Night Broken is the eighth book in the Mercy Thompson series and builds heavily on established character relationships and ongoing plotlines. While the author provides some context, a new reader would benefit significantly from starting with the first book, Moon Called, to fully appreciate the character development and world-building.
Does Night Broken end on a cliffhanger?
The main conflict introduced in Night Broken reaches a resolution by the end of the book. However, like many books in a long-running series, it leaves room for future developments and ongoing character arcs without a direct cliffhanger.
