Alpha & Omega Series

i) "Alpha and Omega" (novella, published in On the Prowl )

1. Cry Wolf (2008)

2. Hunting Ground (2009)

3. Alpha and Omega (January 2012)

I read all of these books. I prefer Adam and mercy,but I really adore Charles!

And poor Bran is with that awful Leah! Ugh,I keep hoping that he will get rid of her. She is so mean and unlikable,I just can't stand her. And even if PB tries to reform her no that Anna/omega is in the pack,I will never like her. Shes tried to hurt/kill Mercy. has been cruel to Sam and Charles,etc

I like Charles too. Although Anna isn't my favorite character I really like the A & O series and the last book left me feeling better about her. I'm not in love with Bran or Sam like some. I adore Warren and Ben. I think we all love Adam

I read those books out of order. It didn't leave me feeling good about Anna.

i dont want to start any other books at the minute . . . hope to get River Marked any day now...

I would have enjoyed the Alpha & Omega books more if I hadn't read the Mercy books first. They suffer by comparison. I do like Charles, but Anna is not the strong or independant character that Mercy is. More of a good supporting character than a main character, imo.
Hopefully, Charles and Anna's characters will appear more in the Mercy books after the A&O series ends. (One more book, right?)

Is that all, only one more?? I didn't mind Anna, I felt for her in the anthology and she dealt with that bitch Leah. But Mercy is one of my favourite kick arse heroines.

I really enjoyed Masques and Wolfsbane too. I would love to read more about that world. Think less lovey and funny Bayou Moon but still very good.

I haven't read those - are they good?

They are good. I really need to read her other series too. I seem to like all her work.

She is awesome, everything is totally believable and she is my knowledge base for wolves now she makes me like them as much as vamps

One of the main characters is named Wolf for reasons you will understand if you read it. I think you would really like these. Oh and yes there is some romance.

I do need some lovin'

smexy loving? or just cute romance?

It's not like Mercy and Adam. That's about as smexy as I've read PB get. They are really good though.

From Patricia Briggs' website blurb about the Alpha-Omega books:
"The series has plenty of action, but there's more emphasis in on the romantic attraction between the hero and heroine. On a romance-readers scale, this series is sweet rather than steamy."

I think 'sweet rather than steamy' sums it up pretty well. Briggs does 'sweet' romance better than anyone else I've read. They honestly don't need the steam.

Cute romance is nice.
But I do need some smexy at some point - otherwise it is just very frustrating!!

Yay! I just got River Marked in the post! Oops wrong thread.... Who gives a... Toss?

Starting these today!

I enjoyed on the prowl. It was short but a good start to a series. I really liked the 2 different POV. I am wondering if the rest of the series is written the same way?

I am struggling with these books. It's not that I think there awful or anything it's more like there just really lacking. I can't pin point what there lacking just that they are.

I wasn't really a fan of Anna. I've really made some people intensely angry in saying that over the years, too. I found myself more interested in the relationship between Charles and Bran in these books. I really prefer Mercy's books.

Hope nobody beats me with a stick but I understand what your talking about.

LOL, well, it wasn't the posters on this site that were angry with me. It seems the people that love the series really love it, though.

Anna is not the strong independant woman that Mercy is, there's really no comparison. If you love one of them, you aren't necessarily going to love the other just because it's the same author.
