Draconis is an epic sci-fi novel that combines big action set pieces, high-minded musings about philosophy, futurism and spirituality, and heartfelt character drama to produce something that will appeal to fans from any walk of life.
At its core, Draconis is a story about an ensemble crew like Firefly or Cowboy Bebop. As with other road trip stories like Apocalypse Now, Star Trek: Voyager, Dante’s Inferno, and The Odyssey, the crew encounters a variety of different locations and characters in their journey to hunt down their mysterious final target.
If you love sci-fi, Draconis has it all. Spycraft, robots, war, AI, ancient civilizations, mechs, space battles, big guns, dinosaurs, philosophy, fast cars, future technology, political intrigue, mystery, epic fight scenes, super soldiers, cosmic horror, and more.
Draconis is a modern pop culture novel that takes influence not just from books and literature, but also from film/TV, video games, anime and modern music, creating an experience that feels as much like contemporary popular entertainment as any TV show or movie.
