Fury of Ice by Coreene Callahan
Nice second installment in the series, but not
without some issues. First off let me say that I loved Angela and Rikar’s
pairing, a great match between two strong characters. Angela was kick-ass
awesome and Rikar was so in tune with her, wanted her so badly, but treated her
with kid gloves and let her take the lead in their relationship. It seems to be
the trend in this series, as it was Myst who initiated intimacy with Bastian in
their book. The women are the aggressors when it comes to “first contact” and I
rather enjoy that for a change!
I also relished the strong presence of all the characters
from Fury of Fire in
this book. Mac, Angela’s partner, was front and center here and had a huge hand
in the storyline. Not much I want to reveal about him, you’ll have to read and
find out, but I’m sure you’ll be as pleasantly surprised as I was! Forge,
father of Gregor-Mayhem, is a character I’m looking forward to reading about as
the series continues. He is strong, fierce, but has a soft side, a yummy
Scottish dragon with a brogue!! Dragolicious!! Venom, Wick and Sloan rounded
out the characters nicely with the ever faithful Daimler keeping the order at
Black Diamond.
Great dialogue, but not enough. Too many pages of
description and people pondering over “stuff”! AND…what was up with the
reference to product names, like Wonder Bread, Macbook, Blackberry and even
BIC, you know as in a “pen”!! I didn’t quite get what was going on with this
and I thought it was just plain weird in a book about…dragons!!
There was plenty of action, with an exciting ending,
wrapped up enough to feel satisfied, but I wanted a little more Rikar and
Angela time. Then again, it is a continuing series and I’m sure we’ll see more
of them in the future. It’s going to be a long wait till Fury of Seduction is released in November…grrrr…which is about a
character that I’m in LOVE with!! Can’t tell you who though! Hehe!!
Even with some minor complaints, it’s still a great series
and different enough that it will hold your interest and have you chomping at
the bit for the next book!
