Description
I review the characteristics of GeV-TeV emitting AGN after two years of observations
with Fermi. Our view of these objects has advanced significantly since the launch of
Fermi and the advent of the sensitive ground-based gamma-ray instruments, such as
HESS, VERITAS and MAGIC. With these instruments we detect a large population of
GeV-TeV AGN with different sub-classes and can, for the first time, measure the
gamma-ray emission across 5 decades of energy. However, despite this great dataset,
there remain many fundamental questions about these mysterious objects that have
still to be addressed.
