 What they said December 18, 2008
I have read the books in the Mercy Thompson series and those are much better.
The short story the preceeded this book was also much better. Plenty of action and good story. In this book the author spends too much time on how unsure of each other Charles and Anna are. The plot isn't that interesting either.
 Has potential December 17, 2008

I am a Mercy Thompson, Rachel Morgan, Sookie Stackhouse fan, so I had high hopes for this book. I was disappointed with the story line like sometimes happens with TV drama spin-offs. I did not fall for either Charles or Anna, or the in-depth view into Bran's family. It felt contrived. However, I think the series has potential. Perhaps a second reading at a different time would help.
Interesting view of a werewolf pack hierarchy December 16, 2008
This was the first book by Briggs that I read. I kept turning the pages hoping for more information about the first meeting of Anna and Charles. I figured since this was "Book 1" that it would have all the information. The writing was good without too much flowery romance stuff, thankfully. I wish I had read the "On the Prowl" short story first but didn't know. It isn't mentioned in the book, I don't think. I liked how Briggs has the hierarchy and even glimpses of history of other characters. I look forward to more character development in future books in this series.
 I love this book! December 11, 2008
Patricia Briggs has really outdone herself this time. Anna is easily relatable, and an amazing character. All I can say is: keep it up!
Awesome! December 10, 2008

I am writing this review to share one firm opinion: on the advice of the "most useful" reviewer for this book, I bought "On the Prowl," after I had read and LOVED "Cry Wolf," which is an awesome book. Honestly, the short story in "On the Prowl," which is "Alpha and Omega," is not worth buying the book for. It should be included in "Cry Wolf," it's only 50 pages, and I read it in 45 minutes. It left me disappointed and moderately annoyed.
However, Cry Wolf is an awesome book, I love Anna and the characters that Patricia Briggs referenced in the Mercy Thompson series and is now bringing to vivid life, and I cannot wait for the second book!
