Summary

Anna never knew werewolves existed until the night she survived a violent attack…and became one herself. After three years at the bottom of the pack, she’d learned to keep her head down and never, ever trust dominant males. But Anna is that rarest kind of werewolf: an Omega. And one of the most powerful werewolves in the country will recognize her value as a pack member—and as his mate.

Perfect introduction to Anna and Charles

I have listened to this novella a number of times and still enjoy it immensely. The characters are well developed and the story sets the scene well for this side-shoot of Patricia Briggs’ “Mercy Thompson Series”

Saved me a reread

Where does Alpha and Omega rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It ranks near the top.

What did you like best about this story?

The visual imagery I got from the good narration.

What does Holter Graham bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

A more emotional response to the story

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes.

Any additional comments?

I bought this to compare it to the print book and was pleased that I did as it was so well done and now I can listen to it any time I want instead of reading the book until it falls apart.

I adore this book, and series.

Where does Alpha and Omega rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I have listened to this book around 30 times so I would say it is probably my favourite.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Charles, how as an extremely alpha werewolf he can still be gentle and careful with Anna, especially after what she has been through.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

The restaurant scene.

Any additional comments?

My only wish is that Audible could get both the whole series of Charles and Anna, and the Mercy books. I prefer to read/listen to a series in order so I would rather not buy Mercy's 8th audiobook until the rest are available.

The Prequel to 'Cry Wolf'

Patricia Briggs is up there with Charlaine Harris, and maybe surpasses her, among my favourite urban fantasy writers. This novella acts as a direct prequel (and acts more like a hidden chapter one) to 'Cry Wolf' the first true novel in the series, and I'd certainly recommend listening to it before starting the main series - although since they're not on Audible you'll be stuck with the dead tree/kindle editions. The narration is passable, no more, but the story is good enough to make up for it, showing the meeting between Anna and Charles - and also some extra context to the slightly convoluted events of 'Moon Called' - the first Mercy Thompson book by the same author.

Alpha and Omega

This is lovely short story, of growing love and trust in difficult circumstances. Read brilliantly by Holter Graham.

Prequel to a great series

The changes in both Charles and Anna’s lives were dramatic when they met and the introduction of the concept of an omega wolf was fascinating, adding a new and expected twist to werewolf pack lore. On Ed of my favourite books!
