Dragons in the Surf, a frighteningly vivid action packed novel on a potential confrontation between China, Iran and Australia and its Allies. This look at power shifts in the Asia Pacific Region, with links to the powder keg in the Middle East will keep readers riveted. Sydney, Australia (PRWEB) February 10, 2007 -- Dragons in the Surf, a frighteningly vivid action packed novel on a potential confrontation between China and Iran and Australia and its Allies. This look at power shifts in the Asia Pacific Region, with links to the powder keg in the Middle East will keep readers riveted.

In 1996, when unpublished author Michael D Squires wrote a novel about terrorists crashing commercial aircraft into military facilities and public buildings, most pundits, agents and publishing houses viewed his work as far-fetched commercialism.

"Michael did his research, and found weaknesses in our way of life that terrorists could exploit against the free societies of the world," explained a literary critic who read the final draft of the book.

The players on the world stage are now mimicking his predictions. Power is shifting and Australia's immense land mass and potential as a strategic food and mineral provider is increasingly evident. What will the future hold?

In Dragons in the Surf, Michael's ability to look over the horizon to fields of conflict as yet unimagined, provides a window through which to view these scenarios. His accurate portrayal of action and those involved in these momentous events makes interesting and disturbing reading.

Take a look through the lens of a future conflict between the aspirations of a power and resources hungry giant with ancient culture and tenacious people living in one of the most ancient landscapes in the world and the world military powers they face. A great read. A book you won't want to put down from its action packed beginning to its mind jolting conclusion.
