The latest Alpha & Omega book is an excellent read. Both Anna and Charles seem to be suffering from the ancient Chinese curse as they 'live in interesting times'. These two need some time off from the stresses of sorting out insane werewolves, killing black witches, and fighting off evil vampires and other parafolk to get to know each other and get a chance to understand their bond. This on the job training stuff is rough on both of them...

In this outing, Charles and Anna travel to Seattle to meet with representatives of wolf packs from elsewhere in the world. The subject of the conference is that the leader of the American wolves intends to 'out' the werewolf community in the near future. Charles has to talk - he hates it. Anna is surrounded by clouds of alpha testosterone - she hates it. Then things start to get really bad - a pack of vampires attack and try to kidnap Anna, several murders occur - and one particularly horrific one is obviously intended to implicate Charles and to prevent Bran from revealing their existence.

Both Charles and Anna [and their relationship] make great strides while saving the day. Great action, great characters, page turning action and I didn't figure out the 'bad guy' in the first half of the book.
