Motel World of the Dragon - Dragon World, #9 - E-book - ePub

Dinosaurs were having sex on the Moon sixty-six million years ago, and Bolon didn't like it. Make no mistake about it, Bolon enjoyed a bit of the naughty now and then as much as any other healthy Goddess-fearing dragon (as they called themselves back then), but he was running an ore mine up there, by golly.  His employees were refining important metals on the Moon-gold, silver, titanium, and niobium-or so he thought.  However, now he was hearing about furtive nighttime antics involving tail rubs and feather strokes leading to full-on hot-blooded saurian sex-and ultimately nests and eggs and hatchlings. It didn't help in the least that it was always nighttime at the ore mine, located in the permanently shadowed region at the Moon's South Pole.  Ore mine?  Lunar love nest with low-gravity sex was more like it! After Bolon's female friends brought him down to Earth (so to speak), and made him see that the sex was going to go on going on regardless of any management memos forbidding it, and that he might as well profit from the shenanigans, he decided to build the first-ever motel on the Moon. First things tend to be hard things (in a manner of speaking) and the Moon Motel was no exception.  Construction in those airless acres was difficult and dangerous, which translated into expensive.
  Expensive?!  Just you wait and see what Bolon ended up paying after consultants got involved: they talked him into a clawful of so-called amenities: first there was an artificial "sun" above an artificial "beach" and before it was all over, pterodactyls were flapping around with freshly caught fish firmly clamped in their toothy jaws! Oh, it was fun times in the Late Mesozoic, all right.... Motel World of the Dragon is part of a series about an ancient dinosaurian civilization.  Each book stands by itself and can be read alone or with the others.  If you enjoy stories such as Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton, you should check out Motel World of the Dragon.  Cross the solar system-travel back in time-buy this adventure-packed tale today!
