''The Arrival of the Drakons'' has an irresistibly powerful premise - a teenager has a choice to make. Save his mother, or the universe.
It''s a dilemma that will capture the hearts and minds of readers young and old, as they grapple with what they would do in such an impossible situation.
Drakons offers readers a glimpse into an extraordinary human future, although one where the past is not quite the same as history books would have it.
Marvelously detailed and vividly imagined, the book tells the story of Zade McDonald a San bushman teenager living in the wilds of Botswana''s Okavango swamps. He''s a shaman who can speak to animals, read minds, and connect with forces greater than himself. His powers are both a gift and a curse; and they haven''t gone unnoticed.
Someone has been watching him.
Someone who''s been studying humankind for millennia, just waiting for a person as incredible as Zade to come along.
