Tamlyn is a Banshee raised on Zora. She risks her life
rescuing children with magic from being sacrificed. Tamlyn encounters Cullen on
her last rescue mission. She reluctantly agrees to allow him to help in her rescue
endeavors. However, the priests and soldiers of Stonemore has set a trap for
them. Will Tamlyn be forced to forsake the children? Can she and Cullen outwit
the priests and soldiers?
Cullen is the Dragon King of the Garnets. He and other
unmated Dragon Kings travel to Zora to help Brandr and Eurwen find the elusive
enemy threatening them. Cullen comes to the aid of a woman and a child fleeing
from soldiers. He wants to help Tamlyn, but he also needs to keep his promise
to Constantine and Brandr. Can Cullen keep from instigating a war between the humans
and dragons? Or will the enemy make that impossible?
I admire Tamlyn’s bravado and persistence in helping
children like her (with magic). She refuses to let any remain in the priests’ evil
presence. It hurts her when she fails. I like how Tamlyn is not afraid to call
Cullen out on things. She knows trust goes both ways, so she does not want
Cullen to keep things from her or to lie to her.
I love how Cullen refuses to ignore children’s plight. It
sickened him to hear the injustices done to children with magic. Cullen is even
willing to break his promise to Con and Brandr to help them.
DRAGON UNBOUND is book three in Donna Grant’s paranormal
romance series, DRAGON KINGS, a spinoff from her DARK KINGS series. I recommend
reading the prior series to understand the Dragon Kings and everything they
have faced to this point. I love the fact that the entire story takes place on
Zora - an alternate world similar to Earth. It did feel like there was no clear
resolution. I wonder if the author plans to continue the problem with Stonemore
in the next installment. I did have a few other minor nitpicks, but they are
more geared towards my preferences.
