Fury of Shadows is the second audio novella in the Dragonfury: Scotland series by Coreene Callahan. A heroine who loves books and a swoon-worthy dragon who lives in a mountain…heck yes. Longer and with more depth than the first, I slipped right into this one.

In the next installment of Coreene Callahan’s bestselling Dragonfury Series: SCOTLAND, a dragon warrior cursed by a terrible past finds redemption in the arms of the woman he's unable to protect.
Commander of the Scottish pack, dragon warrior Cyprus harbors a terrible secret. A brutal truth he has long kept hidden. But when a powerful foe resurfaces, he steps from the shadows and returns to the hunt, vowing to protect his pack along with the woman his enemy seeks to use against him.
Brilliant, broke, and working two jobs, book conservator Elise Woodward has always struggled to make ends meet. When she lands the middle of a secret war, she becomes the target of a rogue pack of Dragonkind and the unwitting guest of a warrior who refuses to let her go—and despite the danger, makes her want to stay.
With the rise of a new enemy, Cyprus is forced to face his demons. But will defeating them be enough? Or will the past return to haunt him, taking the only woman he will ever love?
Dragon warrior Cyprus, Commander of the Scottish pack, carries the burden of his secrets. When an enemy resurfaces, he returns to battle. In the course of his hunt, he stumbles across his foe as he grabs Elise Woodward. When Cyprus sees her they connect and he knows it’s his mate. Now to save her, and convince her she belongs with him.
Suspense, connections, cool abilities and a wickedly cool homestead pulled me in. I loved Elise from the start. She fights back and love books. How could I not cheer for her? Cyprus is broody, smexy and fierce. We learn more about the world, these Scotland dragons, and get characters updates from the previous novella.
While this spinoff trilogy will stand on its own, its clear there are Easter eggs for fans of the Dragonfury series and I am determined to dive into those as well.
The romance was heated with a touch of humor. Their chemistry and feelings for one another felt genuine, even if the fated mate trope made the romance progress quickly.
Felicity Munroe continues to narrate this series and I love her accents for both the male and female voices. She enhances the story and brings forth the characters’ emotions through tone and pacing.
Mates, battles, magic and characters you want to root for await you. I felt this story was stronger than the Fury of a Highland Dragon. I’d attribute the added length. I am looking forward to diving into Fury of Denial and Fury of Persuasion.
Fury of Shadows by Coreene Callahan was an addictive, sexy listen that shared more of the world, dragon history and characters. #Audiobook #Dragonfury #Scotland Share on XStay Caffeinated!
