Dragon and Thief , the first novel in the Dragonback series, was named an American Library Association Best Book For Young Adults. The second novel, Dragon and Soldier is another fast-paced, compulsively readable SF adventure featuring an odd couple of reluctant partners on an unusual quest. Draycos, a golden-scaled draconic K`da poet-warrior, was on a scout fleet ship when it was attacked, with him the lone survivor. Forced to find a new symbiotic humanoid host, he found Jack Morgan. Jack has been on his own, making his way by shipping interstellar cargo on the ship he`s inherited from his Uncle Virgil, a con-man and thief who met with a fatal accident. Draycos has vowed to uncover those behind a vast conspiracy to wipe out his people, while Jack is determined to find out who framed him for a crime he didn`t commit. Virgil, who survives as " Uncle Virge" in the ship`s computer, is against their plan. But Draycos once saved Jack`s life, so Jack feels an obligation to this strange creature who can slip onto the boy`s skin, pressing against it like a living tattoo. Knowing that mercenaries were involved in the ambush that killed Draycos`s fleet, Jack enlists in a mercenary outfit that practically enslaves adolescent recruits. But the soldier`s life isn`t exactly what Jack had bargained for, especially when a mysterious girl is recruited into his group. Strange things are happening, and people and events are not always as they seem.
