Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For millennia, dragons and humans have shared the Earth. For most of that time, it has been a peaceful coexistence, primarily because contemporary human civilizations considered dragons to be nothing more than fairytales created from the fanciful imaginings of cave-dwelling hunter-gatherers. In truth, they have always been an integral part of a healthy planetary biosphere, and without them, Earth's environmental balance would have collapsed long ago. Since the age of eleven, Jacob Payne has been leading the charge in integrating the knowledge of ancient dragons into the innovative technologies that play a key role in the survival and proliferation of the human race. Although their contributions to sustained ecological balance can be found around the globe, the presence of dragons themselves, had been intentionally concealed behind a voluntary veil of separation that effectively prevented the co-mingling of Earth's two dominant species. When that veil was removed by the President of the United States, following the heroic actions of dragons in repelling an extraterrestrial invasion by the Drokarians, and preventing the planetary takeover by an ancient Deep-Earth species known as borlamites, many people embraced their new-found neighbors. Others did not. In the wake of a tragedy involving a Royal Norwegian Navy frigate, in which nearly one hundred seamen lost their lives, the blame was laid at the feet of a dragon, and suddenly unwarranted fear crept into the psyches of many who had previously embraced and revered them. Despite the tireless advocacy of Jacob and Danielle Payne, the entirety of the dragon species faces a crucible in which the very civilization they have rescued from the brink of extinction, now seems to be turning against them.
