Publisher's summary

Patricia Briggs' Alpha and Omega series - set in a world of shifting shapes, loyalty, and passion - brings werewolves out of the darkness and into a society in which fear and prejudice could make the hunters prey....

They say opposites attract. And in the case of werewolves Anna Latham and Charles Cornick, they mate. The son - and enforcer - of the leader of the North American werewolves, Charles is a dominant alpha, while Anna, an omega, has the rare ability to calm others of her kind.

Now that the werewolves have revealed themselves to humans, they can't afford any bad publicity. Infractions that could have been overlooked in the past must now be punished, and the strain of doing his father's dirty work is taking a toll on Charles.

Nevertheless, Charles and Anna are sent to Boston when the FBI requests the pack's help on a local serial killer case. They quickly realize that not only the last two victims were werewolves - all of them were. Someone is targeting their kind. And now Anna and Charles have put themselves right in the killer's sights....

A great read.

As usual, I had a difficult time putting the book down. story, performance, and characters pulled me into every chapter, page, and paragraph.

Just as good!

Storyline just as good as all of the rest of the books. Did drag a little, but finished off just as great!

Charles and Anna take on Boston.

What did you like best about this story?

ZOMG! I love this series so much! It was interesting seeing the consequences of the werewolves coming out from a different perspective than Mercy's. And this book takes place in BOSTON and the plot drew me in immediately and didn't let me go. I seriously listened to this audiobook in one sitting, it was so good!

I think I've said this every review but I freaking love Charles and Anna. Their relationship is so interesting and cute, but not perfect.

I can't wait to get my hands on the next book. I'm a bit sad that I'm almost caught up on this series. I NEED MORE BOOKS WITH CHARLES AND ANNA!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I did listen to it in one sitting.

another thrilling drama with interigue

Anna and Charles are once again tossed into circumstances they did not expect. As Anna works to save Charles from falling into the monster he sees himself....they both end up working to find the middle ground that will allow Charles to maintain his humanity.
once again, Anna saves Charles through the wit and courage that life has given her. Charles ends up finding a small balence in himself while others around him deal with loss and tradgedy. definitely a great read

I love this universe!!

If you could sum up Fair Game in three words, what would they be?

superb urban fantasy

Who was your favorite character and why?

Always Charles and Anna, but Isaac became a real person to me. And I love watching the unfolding story of the Moor! Each book is terrific and extends the reach of the original series. Can't wait for the next book. Ok, I can wait, but I don't want to.

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

I find his slightly nasal voice a distraction sometimes. Not enough to put me off, but enough that I am sometimes pulled out of the story. Also, I often disagree with some of his pronunciation of names. Beauclaire, in my opinion, is BOW CLAIR, not boclar.

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

Neither laugh nor cry, but I have "read" it several times already and will continue to do so. I find the culture of werewolves has evolved here to be more than just monsters but instead are complex, three-dimensional characters with rules, laws, taboos, etc.

Interesting!

Charles and Anna are at it again. This time they’re on the hunt for a serial killer who is taking humans. But you know it truly can’t be that easy, right? Cause it’s not. The people/monsters responsible will pay.

Charles, he’s the Marrok’s hatchet man. The killer.... but what people seem to forget is he’s also not a heartless fiend, though some may differ. It’s the fear talking. Now that he’s mates, he’s found his calm place, his happiness in Anna his other emotions, once pushed aside come to the forefront. With demons of his own to fight all while hunting down a serial killer.... gets interesting.

Anna of course, is right by his side. It’s their bond and love that helps them not only figure out who the bad guys (haha) are but to help save his mate and put a stop to the hurting and killing all together.

This was a good story but here were times where I wanted to smack Charles. For a bright man he can be a dimwit too...but as always, I loved Anna.

Agree with disappointing

This is not up to the standards of the other books the author has written.
The premise has merit but the way it is presented is disappointing
