Someone pulled a Jurassic with my genes. I am the result of an experiment - human spliced with dinosaur - or so I assumed growing up. According to my parents, they rescued me from a lab when I was just a roly-poly egg. All my life I’ve hidden what I am because my parents told me I had to, but when they die, my world is blown apart. Which is when I meet Urion. Tall, dark, and arrogant, he invades my dreams and then ignites my world. I’m trying to protect my heart, but he makes me want something a misfit can’t have. A happily ever after.

As I recall, it all started with a mystical dream. I awoke from that dream only to find that we had a mission the Five Moons could not handle. Can you even believe that? The Five Moons. So it was that my father brought me over the quantum portal to a secret - a whole new ship - the Green Jinn. Everything about the Green Jinn was an illusion, and nobody even knew that she existed. Admiral Dallas Blake made me captain of the Green Jinn. I am Chon ko Gonin.

Genetic engineer Noah Parker helped domesticate dragons for use as pets and deployed them for the United States military. Now his team is tasked with designing dragons to tackle invasive species and other ecological problems. It's no easy job, especially because government approval requires the dragons have built-in failsafes to prevent them from reproducing in the wild. To Noah's surprise, the approval also requires the presence of an onsite observer—who happens to be his former rival from graduate school.

Brilliant genetic engineer Noah Parker is pitted head—to—head against the founder of Build—a—Dragon to design custom dragons for the military. Genetic engineer Noah Parker has at last landed the job he's long coveted: director of dragon design for the Build—A—Dragon Company. With a combination of genetic engineering and a cryptic device known as the Redwood Codex, he and his team can produce living, breathing dragons made—to—order. But sales of dragons have plummeted, and the Build—A—Dragon Company will have to find new revenue streams if it hopes to stay in business.

SOME MONSTERS ARE REAL—AND SOME SECRETS ARE DEADLY After a dragon-like attack, a paleontologist’s team ventures deep into an island jungle—only to discover the true nightmare has just begun. Deep in a Caribbean rainforest, a secret U. S. military base is hiding something terrifying. After a dragon-like creature decimates a village on the Puerto Rican island of Isla Lagarta, survivors’ claims are dismissed—until paleontologist Dr. Vikki Barnes and her scientist ex-boyfriend start digging for answers.

Dr. Eva Paz wants only a peaceful life on Roatan for herself and her dolphins, continuing their research in dolphin communication and educating children on the importance of caring for the reef. But when the Navy reactivates Taffy and Finn for exercises in Pearl Harbor, that all changes, for she finds Julian is there as well, and he is armed with yet another genetically modified creature. This time, it has the spirit of an actual dragon. Thankfully, Eva has her friends and her family—and Thomas—on her side. Not to mention a whole host of new friends: the members of Dragon Clan.

After her dangerous adventures earlier in the year, everything is finally going well for Dr. Eva Paz. Her breakthroughs in dolphin communication are changing the world. Her discoveries could save the reef she loves. And now her mother has found love again.

Stepping up the horror considerably from previous installments in the Krakenstein saga, this fifth tale, and the second in the The Next Regeneration trilogy, sees the return of first trilogy heroes Jeremiah Savage, Key Sharlayne, and even Key's brilliant scientist half-sister, Dr. Deanna Sharlayne, who have just been evicted from the ancient facility that is Emerald Island by its hardly cordial creators.

Gigantic centipedes born of genetic engineering and experimental pesticides and fertilizers storm a small farming community, running down and devouring everything on two legs, in this exciting new tale of suburban terror and mayhem.

The big squidheaded guy who's not Cthulhu is back - and this time, it's really, really personal, because the monster who's out to destroy him is his own brother!

Towering "bug lady" Magenti may have disappeared of late, but Krakey is still patrolling the world. Tailed by the Moray 2 stealth sub, which is captained by none other than longtime Krakenstein "human friend" Shea Sanders, the titan isn't able to stop the latest problem by himself.
