Our universe is stranger than we can imagine. Dragons once ruled. Most fled, escaping extinction. Others hid, underground or underwater, biding their time. Dragons will rule the surface again-when humankind destroys itself. In London, 1947, old Mary unearths a letter and foresees the return of long-lost friends. British intelligence asks, are old reports from 1891 true? Did Mary fly in a saucer? What does she know of dragons, space aliens, and shape-shifting reptilians? When Mary's friends arrive-a Gurkha soldier, a British secret agent, and an American scientist-unaged despite a 56-year absence, Mary must decide. Can she face her final great adventure? In India, 1857, psychic-medium H.P. Blavatsky shuns the Great Game between Russia and Britain. When a reptilian tricks her into sparking the Great Rebellion, she flees to mysterious Manipur, where her search for knowledge awakens an ancient dragon god. In Nepal, 1886, teenager Siriman encounters a fiery dragon. He escapes, seeking safety as a Gurkha soldier in the British army in India. Five years later, fate leads Siriman to Manipur-as a pawn trapped in a global conspiracy. In Manipur, 1891, Ethel Grimwood faces fears and rejoins her philandering husband, only to flirt with British officers and a rebellious prince. When a secret society ignites a "little war" in Manipur, the Raj sends the Gurkhas and the fates of Ethel and Siriman intertwine. At disaster's brink, Ethel leads a desperate evacuation. Abandoned, Siriman and the Gurkhas face certain death until a golden-haired "angel" appears in a flying saucer, promising safety-if the Gurkhas will fight... dragons. Read Seven Breaths of the Dragon, The Secret History of the Gurkha-Dragon War, where true-life historical fiction meets science fiction and New Age mysticism, and experience adventure in the tradition of Kipling, Haggard, Doyle, Wells, and Verne.
