Summary

When dragons rise from the earth, firefighters are humanity's last line of defense, in this wild near-future fantasy.

Firefighter Cole Brannigan is on the verge of retirement after 30 years on the job, and a decade fighting dragons. But during his final fire call, he discovers he's immune to dragon smoke. It's such a rare power that he's immediately conscripted into the elite dragon-fighting force known as the Smoke Eaters. Retirement cancelled, Brannigan is re-assigned as a lowly rookie, chafing under his superiors. So when he discovers a plot to take over the city's government, he takes matters into his own hands. With hundreds of innocent civilians in the crosshairs, it's up to Brannigan and his fellow Smoke Eaters to repel the dragon menace.

On fire

Fire fighters versus dragons.
Does that sentence get to you? Does it stir your inner five year old? Good. Then listen to this.

The pacing and sense of escalation was great. It mocks some tropes while grabbing other by both hands and embracing them. The world was strong and was built well - it is an excellent near future.

This is very American. The lead character is a bit of typical, grizzled hero but his sense of humour makes it worth forgiving.

Honestly: it was good fun. It was exactly what I signed up for and made me laugh out loud more than once. If you want something easy going to capture your imagination this is it.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
