Dragons' Wrath was the sixth audio story published by Big Finish Productions as part of their Bernice Summerfield series. This was the final story produced that was an adaption of a Virgin New Adventures or Virgin Bernice Summerfield New Adventures novel. Unlike the previous adaptions, this story was only a single CD. The five earlier stories were each two cds.

Publisher's summary

The warlord Gamaliel from the legendary Knights of Jeneve captured The Gamalian Dragon, ­ a jewel-encrusted statuette, after the Battle of Bocaro. It is now sought by Romolo Nusek, apparently Gamaliel's descendent, to prove his right to assume his ancestor's mantle as ruler of the Sector.

When Benny joins a group seeking to find the legendary stauette, she hs a secret. No one can possibly find one on Stanturus because she's already carrying it ­ left for her by a murdered colleague.

The trouble is, the expedition does find one and, as a result, most of them are mysteriously slaughtered. Benny realises she and historian Nicholas Clyde must discern the traitor in their midst. Could it be Gilder, the obsequious administrator from Benny's own university? Could it be Truby Kamadrich, the famous archaologist? Or might it be the bizarre librarian Reddick, who never leaves Nusek's vaults, protected by an inhospitable volcano?
