More than twenty years have passed since Walter Auffenberg's monumental The Behavioral Ecology of the Komodo Monitor. In the intervening years the populations of Komodo dragons—native only to a handful of islands in southeast Indonesia—have dwindled, sparking intensive conservation efforts. During the last two decades new information about these formidable predators has emerged, and the most important findings are clearly presented here. A memoir from Walter Auffenberg and his son Kurt is followed by the latest information on Komodo dragon biology, ecology, population distribution, and behavior. The second part of the book is dedicated to step-by-step management and conservation techniques, both for wild and captive dragons. This successful model is a useful template for the conservation of other endangered species as well, for, as Kurt and Walter Auffenberg note, “The species may well indeed survive in the wild for generations to come while countless other organisms are lost.”
Dragon's Captive
Our world is gone and the dragons have enslaved us. The life I knew was changed forever when I lost someone I loved. I became a traitor to my people the day I saved Theron, the handsome dragon prince of Andrasar. He's repaid my kindness with captivity. He's made me his slave. He's my enemy whose clutch I should want to escape. He's a monster I should hate. But he makes me forget when his touch scorches me like a brand and marks me as his. Humans are a threat and should be destroyed. I've dedicated my life to the misery of humans. Their unwelcome presence is a reminder of what I've lost. The appearance of Seela, the beautiful human female who saves my life, contradicts my beliefs. She is my fire's half, destined to be my mate. I can't accept her. I can't want her. She is my enemy. But she makes such sweet sounds of surrender when I taste her, I have no choice but to claim her as mine. Dragon's Captive is a safe enemies to lovers, slow burn romance. It stars a handsome, domineering alien dragon shifter falling in love with a lovely, brave and feisty human woman. No cliffhangers. Happily Ever After guaranteed.

America’s Most Deadly Enemy is still loose. . . and he’s ready to move. On the eve of the takedown of the world’s leading terrorist, his protégé eluded U.S. forces. . . and now he’s racing across four countries in a scenario that could happen tomorrow. Following his dead mentor’s desire to reestablish the Islamic Caliphate, Aziz Abdul Muhammad, hand-picked by bin Laden himself, masterminds a series of attacks on the U.S. energy infrastructure that will reignite the war against the West. As his initial series of attacks creates mass panic, leaving the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states in terrified darkness, the manhunt is on. In a unique special operations force, veteran intelligence officer David Cain, along with Air Force Sergeant Emily Thompson and rookie FBI Agent Dave Johnson, leads the U.S. effort to find Aziz and his operations expert. From Camp Delta in Guantanamo Bay to Chicago and the outskirts of Tehran, the force must halt Al Qaeda’s attempt to rise from the ashes of its former self—and stop the Inheritor before the rest of his terrifying plan unfolds.
