Esmerelda Sleuth: The Other Side of the Mirror (Book 1)

Meet Esmerelda Sleuth. Sleuth is her name and investigating is her game. (Paranormal Investigating, that is.) Esmerelda makes a good living as an investigator in a rather progressive firm. She lives a stable and sensible life until she meets Lance; an old money "hottie" who works for a real estate firm next to her building. After accepting an invitation for a weekend getaway party, she quickly discovers that Lance has a secret. He is wealthy. That part is true. And, yes, he's procured a job as a realtor in the building next door. His secret is that he belongs to an underground society of humans who didn't abandon their connection to magic centuries ago when religion declared it evil and he has traveled through time specifically to find her and bring her back to his time to marry him. If that isn't enough of a far fetched tale to absorb, he informs her that she was born in his time to a family belonging to that same secret society and was promised in marriage to him as an infant. When enemies who didn't want to see the union of families take place made attempts on her life, her parents sent her into the future and erased her memories of them as a precaution. Possessing virtually no belief in magic, ghosts, psychics, time travel, etc., it takes some doing on Lance's part to convince her to believe his story and go back with him. When she does, the lies, deceit and attempts on her life start all over again. Will she escape emotionally and physically unscathed? "The Other Side Of the Mirror" is a steamy-paranormal-romance- mystery-thriller and book one of the Esmerelda Sleuth series.

Detective Casie Blackwood and the Moonlit Secrets

Detective Casie Blackwood and the Moonlit Secrets

Detective Casie Blackwood thought she'd left her supernatural past behind when she joined the police force ten years ago, fleeing the shame of public mate rejection and family abandonment. Now, ritualistic murders are forcing her back into a world she desperately wanted to forget. Three human victims have been discovered with surgical precision wounds and ancient symbols carved into their palms—markings that point to forbidden blood magic from before the supernatural communities established peaceful coexistence. When Casie finds a note written in the old pack language reading "The Hunt Begins," she realizes someone is deliberately targeting humans to harvest their primal fear, threatening to expose the entire supernatural world. Partnered with Detective Rick O'Connor, who remains unaware of her true nature, Casie must navigate the investigation while concealing her enhanced senses and knowledge of the supernatural. The wounds aren't from blades—they're fang marks. The positioning isn't random—it's ritualistic. And the killer's scent carries a terror that suggests they're being hunted by something even more dangerous. Forced to break ten years of silence, Casie contacts her estranged brother Elias, learning the symbols are ancient binding marks used to channel supernatural energy across factional boundaries. The killer needs seven sacrifices total to complete a ritual that will shatter the barriers between the human and supernatural worlds. With three victims already claimed and only four days until the next lunar cycle, time is running out. As federal agents circle and media attention intensifies, Casie must choose between maintaining her carefully constructed human life and embracing the supernatural heritage she rejected. The investigation isn't just about stopping a killer—it's about preventing an all-out war that could destroy both worlds she's sworn to protect.

What is the chronological reading order for all Mercedes Lackey series?

Anyone else get emotionally attached to the Companions more than the Heralds sometimes? Rolan, Gwena, Yfandes... they're characters in their own right. The order you read affects which Companion you meet first and who becomes your favorite. That's a weird little side effect of reading order no one talks about.

Which Mercedes Lackey series should I start with and in what order?

The most underrated starting point is actually her Bardic Voices series, book one 'The Lark and the Wren'. It's a zero-to-hero story about a stubborn street musician who literally charms monsters with her music. The magic is all music-based, which is unique and beautifully described.

It's also set in a world with a rigid class system, so there's great social conflict. It's a complete story that opens up a bigger world. If the idea of magic being channeled through art and performance appeals to you more than psychic bonds or elemental spells, run, don't walk, to this book. It's a masterpiece of a different color.

My friend got into them by reading 'Owlflight' first, which is the start of the Owl trilogy, set in a different part of the world. She loved it and then branched into Valdemar proper. There's no gate here.

What is the correct reading order for Megan Miranda books?

Her adult psychological thrillers are the main draw for most. I'd recommend starting with 'All the Missing Girls' because it put her on the map, then just follow your mood. Each book has a similar tense vibe but a unique setting.

Are Mercedes Lackey standalone books connected and how should I order them?

8 Answers2026-08-02 23:13:34
Her collaborations are a whole other can of worms. Books co-written with James Mallory (Obsidian) or Roberta Gellis (the Heirs of Alexandria series) exist in entirely separate worlds. So if you pick up a co-written book, assume it's not connected to Valdemar/Elemental Masters/Five Hundred Kingdoms unless explicitly stated.
