Anyone else read this book? I got an advanced copy and it was 10 times
better than Harry Potter. And I'm a Harry potter fan. You gotta read this.

March 20th, which Coincides with the Show Dragons on the Discovery Channel
- Animal Planet
Download this press release as an Adobe PDF document.
Nartea Publishing, a division of DNA Press (www.dnapress.com), announced
that the book “Dragons: Lexicon Triumvirate” (ISBN 0-9748765-0-X) has been
shipped to bookstores. The publication of this book coincides with the
much-anticipated show Dragons on the Discovery Channel – Animal Planet
( http://animal.discovery.com/convergence/dragons/dragons.html) to be seen
on March 20th. The book features technologically advanced dragons battling
one another in the Middle Ages, and contains fantastic fight sequences
that span across time and space with an array of amazing weaponry.
Philosophy is intrinsic to this writing.
(PRWEB) March 18, 2005 -- Today, Nartea Publishing, a division of DNA
Press (www.dnapress.com), announced that the book “Dragons: Lexicon
Triumvirate” (ISBN 0-9748765-0-X) has been shipped to bookstores. The
publication of this book coincides with the much-anticipated show Dragons
on the Discovery Channel – Animal Planet
( http://animal.discovery.com/convergence/dragons/dragons.html) to be seen
on March 20th. Set in a mediaeval realm where futuristic technologies and
prehistoric beings alike can be summoned through the tapping of time’s
power, this book depicts the story of Dennagon, a lone dragon sentry who
battles to find omniscience. What sets Kenneth Eng’s first book, Dragons:
Lexicon Triumvirate, apart from most science fiction/fantasy is the fact
that it revolves not around humans, but dragons. Dragons, often portrayed
in literature as vile creatures meant to be slain by men, are instead
shown as intelligent beings bent upon the search for truth. It is the only
novel that is based entirely upon technologically advanced dragons
battling one another in the Middle Ages, and contains fantastic fight
sequences that span across time and space with an array of amazing
weaponry.
In addition, this fiction work is not only entertaining, but philosophical
as well. Various challenges that the characters face lead to discussions
on the nature of the universe (and multiverse), and demonstrate how
perception can literally change any reality, including our own quotidian
World. What makes this book unique from other metaphysical stories,
however, is that fact that it answers through pure logic alone many of the
most fundamental riddles known to man – the nature of infinity, the
certainties of the universe, and the conceptual Theory of Everything, just
to name a few. The author even claims that the very meaning of life is
buried somewhere in the text.
Readers at various ages will enjoy this work, which is destined to be one
of the bestseller books of 2005. It is not very often to find a book,
which treats philosophy through the prism of Dragons’ lives and knowledge
in such a powerful way.
After being outcast from his draconic civilization, the dragon sentry
Dennagon joins a band of errant dragons that tell him about an entity
called the Lexicon, the one item in the world of fantasy that contains the
source of all wisdom. However, along with the challenge of finding the
Lexicon, he must also face the evil dragon king Drekkenoth, a frightful
serpentine tyrant who has corrupted the minds of his species with the
venom of knowledge. Armies of mechanized humans have amassed under his
command, as well as quantum mechanical Technodragons of the 25th century
enhanced. Their mission is to take total control over all reality, and the
only being who can stop them is the one dragon that defied their decree.
But can Dennagon overcome the strange enigmas of time that await him? Can
he defeat legions of Technoknights, wurms, and wyverns that seek to
annihilate him? More so, can he ever comprehend that there is more to life
than the lore he has so valiantly sought?
The author, Kenneth Che-Tew Eng, is a January 2005 graduate of NYU’s Tisch
School of the Arts. At 21 years of age, he is one of the youngest
published science fiction novelist in America. He has also written the
novel The 0th Dimension. An ardent furry fanatic, he specializes in
creating anthropomorphic literature and art.
The book is available at www.dnapress.com, amazon.com, and bookstores near
you (available through Ingram, Baker&Taylor, IPB Book). Price: $21.95

Well it does seem intriguing, since it has dragons (of course), but also
time travel, technology, and other good scifi elements. It seems akin to
what the 'Ratchet and Clank' series kinda did to the platforming genre. It
mix/mashed rpg and other genre elements into a really good game!

Mmm....thinking again after I've seen the detail on Amazon.com. Not
really a must but a good one after all.

It does sound fascinating, especially for a bookwyrm like me. One
reason I personally want to read it is because of what it says about
the author. I want to be listed as one of the youngest published
authors in America, one day...
I am currently working on two novels that I want to publish, one of
which is a sci-fi story about a character named Ri whose job, at least
in the beginning, is to travel between the dimensions of the multiverse
and make sure that the 'walls' which seperate them stay intact, so of
course I love that subject. Ri also happens to be the oldest living
creature in the universe and the ancestor of both dragons and felines,
but I guess I shouldn't go on too much about her right now. I didn't
really mean to alter the subject, I'm just random that way...
Anyway, looks interesting, like I said. Now I know what book to get
after I finish Shelters of Stone by Jean M. Auel, and Winds of Change
and Winds of Fury by Mercedes Lackey. Those three should take me... a
month at most.
