Firedrake

ABOUT FIREDRAKE:

The war is now 100 days old and the action moves from the Indian Ocean to the South China Sea, but not before CIA Colonel Jason Dunn hitches a ride with Sergeant King and his recon troop, through Sadr City to the heart of Baghdad in search of a mysterious artifact.
Meanwhile, the USN pushes into the Sulu Sea to strike at the Palawan barrier, and the new Chinese Admiral Zheng Bao, leads his fleet out to challenge the carriers. The action is thick and heavy as both sides struggle to control Puerto Princesa, and the bases on the reef islands and Borneo.
Karpov must then lead Kirov and Kazan through the perilous waters of Palawan Gap to try and sail north toward the Sea of Okhotsk and their mission in Siberia. Along the way they encounter a derelict ship, with dark evidence of tampering by their nemesis Ivan Volkov. Can the history they have been fighting for in 2026 still be preserved, or will Volkov’s bleak empire overshadow the world?
