a must listen to series.

this series is very interesting and spellbinding. I was unable to fall asleep during it it kept me awake and my mind active. The writer is very good as her series and I recommend this series to anybody who might be interested. The narration is excellent and I look forward to listening to more books by the same narrator as well as the writer. you must listen to this series at least a chapter at a time. You will find yourself wanting to go on and go on. excellent production.

Good Finish To the Series

I read all the Werecats books and, although I got a little frustrated with Faythe at times, it was a series I had to see through to the end. Good storytelling & narration.

Could not stop listening

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

This series is one of my favorite. I did not want to stop listening to what Faythe was going to screw up next.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I have to root for the under dog, Jace. He was such a strong fun character. He had a personality that anyone could fall inllove with.

Have you listened to any of Jennifer Van Dyck’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, She is very great at bring every single character to life. I could tell which character was speeking with out their name being said.

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

I bet people in passing cars thought i was crazy laughing or gasping at my car sterio. I could not help it, I was completly absorbed by the story.

Any additional comments?

I wish Rachel Vincent would continue this series. There are so many possible directions this set of characters could go.

Whiney heroine, conflicted for six books

Faythe "with a 'Y'and an 'E'" is an indulged Daddy's girl who, when confronted with the realities of her life, always wants it both ways and wants Daddy Alpha to fix the injustices.

After six books, one would think that Faythe would learn to toughen up about or walk away.

Hard to believe she expects to become the Alpha.

The book SUCKS

The main female character was annoying, pathetic, whiny, made the same mistakes over and over. There was just no way to like her at all. I will admit that she did improve a small fraction in the end. But it was to little to late. The series just sucked. The only reason I even read to the end was because I liked 2 of the secondary characters. Nate who gets stupidly killed off and Jace who was a sweetie.

I wouldn't bother wasting your time reading this series.
