Firedrake - Volume One

Back of book:

In 1963, people began to change. It was called the Emergence, and it was to become a time of wonder. Abilities once only dreamed of become commonplace, and the world was to see the rise of a new life-form. Science dubbed them the Emerged, but popular commentary called them simply geneboosters.

Born in the form of a dragon, Francis Drake was the living embodiment of his father's worst nightmare.

Years after leaving that abusive parent behind, Drake is now in the employ of the Department of Justice - though not at his own choice.

Forced to work for the good of a public who hates the very sight of him, Drake will do what he must in order to see the one person who means anything to him. Every job undertaken means more time with his brother. Now something big looms on the horizon, and Drake finds himself in the middle of it.

Those in power have abused their authority to place this powerful creature in their employ, but who will regret it more when he is unleashed?
