Editorial Review:

Now Briggs begins an extraordinary new series set in Mercy Thompson's world--but with rules of its own.
INTRODUCING THE ALPHA AND OMEGA NOVELS...

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.

Not really book one....:

Although listed as book 1 in this series, Cry Wolf is not really the start: there's a prequel in an anthology, which I learned after taking the novel home. For those who know to hunt down the other book to read first, Cry Wolf is probably a good read. However, for the casual reader who plucked it off the shelf it is confusing and irritating; there's no attempt at back story, constant allusions to a previous series of events and a host of completely unintroduced characters and events that the reader is... more info

I seriously recommend you read "On the Prowl' before you purchase this book, it will help a lot. Though the author does sparsely inject bits about the previous story into the plot and makes an attempt to fill you in, it doesn't cover everything. Even without... more info

Couldn't put it down!:

When I picked up Cry Wolf I admit I was skeptical because of the sultry woman on the cover. But soon I was caught in the pages, staying up until 4am to finish it! Good storyline, believable world and characters. I can't wait for the next one!

Pleased to see another good series from Briggs:

I'm a fan of the Mercy Thompson series, so I already had some background understanding as this new series takes place in the same universe. Taking the advice of another reviewer, I did first read Briggs' short story in the On the Prowl anthology which introduces the characters, and I'm glad I did as the story explained how Charles and Anna met. If reprints are made of this particular book in the future, I hope Briggs will include the story in the book.
Although explained what made an Omega special, it... more info
