Book Description
Old Jake Pickett is a strange one. He can turn bullets to dust or collapse skyscrapers with his mind. But all he really wants to do with his "magic" is entertain the poor kids who live, like him, near the chemical dump. Or talk telepathically with his crippled niece, Amanda. Then a giant company decides that the only way to cover up their mess is to eliminate the people who have been affected, for better or worse, by the seeping industrial wastes. Now Jake and Amanda are running for their lives. And ours.

Book Description
The last of the elder dragons was slain long ago, and ever since his death, the world has been beset by violence, poverty and the many other evils that vex humankind. After Wyc the minstrel relates the tale of Sir Ulryc and the Last Dragon to the court of the warmongering King Adryc, the king decides to recover the dragon's treasure from Mount Dragonheart. However, the secret of how to reach the inaccessible mountain is known only to the monks of Elyon. When the king’s soldiers invade High Dragon monastery looking for the secret way, young Tercyn and four squabbling monks escape into the mysterious Land of Dragons carrying the monastery’s most sacred relic, the Eye of the Dragon. To save the monastery, all five must overcome their own personal dragons and somehow find a way to defeat the king’s soldiers. Dragongate is both an imaginative tour de force and an exploration of the causes of human suffering and how to overcome them.
