"Scientific Dragons" Audiobook Release
New Audio Novel! I am excited to announce that Scientific Dragons: The Adventure of Ensun Castle is now available for purchase on Audible, and it will be available on iTunes and Amazon within the next few days.
ABOUT THE BOOK AND THE AUTHOR: In Scientific Dragons: The Adventure of Ensun Castle, an expatriate from the Philippines, an immortal female pirate, and a Japanese American spy must battle to keep a small European kingdom from falling to a global shadow government and their airborne fortress. Our heroes must navigate airship battles and clockwork minds as they unravel a conspiracy that threatens to set the country ablaze.
Author Dom Magwili wrote the book because “I loved tales of bravado, and the grand gesture, of friendship and the impossible dream. I wanted to see myself in these stories. This tale has given me an opportunity to live that life through the fantastic lens of steampunk.”
