About this ebook

Greg Curtis, author of the epic fantasy novel Maverick, now brings you Dragon, a science fiction space adventure in the grand tradition.

Christian Aaron Moody the Third lost his entire family ten years earlier as they went off in the family ship never to return. Now ten long years later, having taught himself everything he needed to know about spaceship construction and having finally found an ancient battleship to restore to its former glory, he is ready to begin his quest to find them.

Now nothing is going to stand in his way as he sets about his journey. Not the navy who failed to search for his family when they first went missing. Not the pirates who quite possible killed them. Not an alien race set on destroying the entire Federation and enslaving its citizens. Not even his health which is failing after years of illegal drug use.

And it certainly won't be the endless whining of his faithful droid, Bibby, as he constantly reminds him of the danger of his actions.

Christian Aaron Moody the Third is on his way to find his family and its time for the galaxy to stand aside!

Greg Curtis

Greg Curtis is the name of a hopelessly boring, middle class, sci fi loving nerd. He was born in New Zealand, land of the long white cloud and small flightless birds and grew up in the city of Wellington, renown for its high winds and the almost magical ability of rain and sleet to be lifted off the street and blasted into one's face. After eighteen years of suffering the cold and wet, he was finally blown away in a particularly bad storm to settle far away as a student at Massey and Otago Universities. He was intered there for more years then most would ever admit to. Then when the universities finally pronounced him done he became an overqualified and underpaid worker in the health sector - aren't we all! Greg has lived in the city of Rotorua, one of the very few places in the world where people have actually chosen to reside beside active geysers and breath air that reeks of sulphur, for the past seventeen years, working by day for his daily bread, and toiling away by night on his books. When not engaged in his great passions of reading and writing science fiction and fantasy, drinking strong black coffee (some call it tar), and consuming copious amounts of chocolate (dark naturally), he lives a quiet life of contemplation as the high priest to his two cats. Greg worships them with regular gifts of food, occasional grooming and by providing them with a warm dry place to sleep. They in turn look down upon him with typical feline disdain, but occasionally deign to bring him gifts of headless vermin - as a warning. In a desperate bid to understand the meaning of his life, he has recently started studying philosophy, particularly metaphysics, and has finally come to a startling conclusion. God must be a cat! Cheers and be good or don't get caught.
