Will and Carter have reached Palmyra, but their troubles are just beginning. Fractal’s base stretches for miles, and anyone caught sneaking around the atoll will be killed... or worse. In order to maintain his cover, Will must pose as a Fractal recruit and survive their deadly training program. But as he tries to juggle being a trainee and searching for his sister, some Fractal agents are already growing suspicious. Especially his sadistic new training instructor, Gorya. If Will wants a chance at escaping Palmyra alive, he’s going to have to recruit some new allies, and find his sister before he and Carter are caught.
Back in Washington, Maia continues to drive the British Embassy investigation in secret, even though she’s been told to abandon the case. Her team discovers proof that the attack wasn’t just an isolated incident, and that it’s potentially the start of something much larger. Can her team find who is behind the attack and stop them before they strike again? The clock is ticking...
CURVE OF THE DRAGON is a riveting new spy series from debut author Matt Stokes. Episodic in nature, each of the four books tells a serialized part of a larger story. Inspired by the likes of James Bond, Mission: Impossible, and Alias, fans of espionage action and fast-paced thrillers will be right at home.
Matt Stokes grew up on a steady diet of James Bond movies and works with engineers every day, so the only real surprise here is that he didn't combine them sooner.
Curve of the Dragon is his first novel series, but he has previously written on multiple video games, including the WGA-nominated World in Conflict.
When he's not pitching devs crazy plot twists or devising new ways to torture Will Taylor, Matt can be found producing video games. As a producer, he has worked on installments of Gears of War and Fallout, and was part of the team that brought Shinji Mikami's The Evil Within to life. He was also the project director on the absolutely insane expansion to Borderlands 2, appropriately titled Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage.
