Squeak, the main character (the Komodo Dragon), will meet several players who will teach him how to survive in a predatory world.

Together, they will embark on a self-discovery journey using Raven's Vortex, the perfect time machine. Traveling back and forth in time is not an easy accomplishment but, if Squeak is serious about finding out his identity, his ancestry, and the meaning of his life, he will have to adapt to change in order to complete his journey.

Praise for this book

The True Story of the Komodo Dragon's merry charm maintains its hold to the finish, which features a partnership that transcends time and space. . . concluding with poignancy, the unconventional fantasy novel follows a young Komodo dragon as he becomes something much bigger - and greater - than he could have ever dreamed of. It is a feat of pure imagination. - Foreword Clarion Reviews

There's a wonderfully inventive and unexpected twist to the ending, and graphics, photos, sudden page breaks, and changing typefaces and fonts lend the book an energetic dynamic. Throughout, Bourbeau humorously breaks the fourth wall, addressing his readers and characters. Readers will be watching for more from this imaginative and humorous young writer. - Blueink Review
