This is my first Heather Renee book and it definitely will not be my last. Shades of Fury is the first book in the Raven Point Pack series and it tells the story of a young female werewolf, Taya who suddenly finds herself in a position of power. A position she inherited when her twin brother was murdered and her father was placed in a magical induced coma.
Prior to his death her brother had discovered some disturbing information. Taya now finds herself on a mission, along with her best friend Auggie, to investigate her brotherโs findings, locate the person responsible for his murder and a witch who could remove the spell from her father.ย
ย
This fast -paced story had me hooked, and I found myself completely immersed in the story. I didnโt want to stop listening.ย
ย
I loved the characters. Taya is strong, determined and a no-nonsense female shifter. I loved how she stepped up to the challenge when she suddenly found herself thrust in a position of leadership.
ย
Initially, I thought her friendship with Auggie would become something more. However, as the story developed it was evident their feelings would go no further than being good friends. I enjoyed their banter and loved how they could be real with each other.
ย
There was a hint of romance. What I found interesting was Tayaโs initial resistance to Liam. His cockiness did not impress her, even though her wolf recognized him as her mate, and who could blame her. Eventually, he mellowed out, and she found herself drawn to him.ย The romance was served as a side dish to the intrigue.ย
ย
At the end of the installment, the incidents that occurred at the start of the story were yet to be resolved.ย I already have book 2 lined up so I hope to get my answers soon.
ย
Narration
Kasi Hollowell did a great job with the narration. It is my first time listening to her, and I liked her voice. She did a great job in bringing out the charactersโ personalities. I look forward to listening to more of her work.
ย
Conclusion/Recommendation
Overall, this was a good start to the series. I enjoyed the humour, action and the characters. I would recommend this book to fans of urban fantasy.ย
