Review Roundup

Patricia Briggs's Cry Wolf is praised for its engaging plot and well-developed characters, particularly the protagonists Anna and Charles. Many readers appreciate the strong world-building and the deep dive into werewolf lore. However, some critics find the pacing uneven and the integration of backstory from prequel short stories a bit confusing for new readers. Nonetheless, it captivates those fond of urban fantasy and romance.
