Overview
Jamie always knew that his Grandad was special. How special came to light one day when Grandad and Jamie were alone. Grandad received a call from a secret international organisation (International High Council for the Investigation of Unusual Phenomena or I.H.C.I.U.P.) of which Grandad was a senior member. Jamie found himself being whisked away to New York on board a very special rocket ship which travels at speeds of several thousand miles an hour. It lands on a skyscraper rooftop and Jamie is then taken to the HQ of IHCIUP. A large structure which floats in the sky (Cloud Base) Jamie and his Grandad attend an extraordinary meeting of different nationalities. They learn of the escape of the last living Dragon. (Held in China). During the Dragons escape, he steals a special stone from Japan and then flies off to his ancient hideout in the Black Mountains of Western Europe. Grandad and a small team are tasked with the responsibility to return the Stone and the Dragon to captivity. They fly off, Jamie is accidentally stowed aboard with them (along with a small scruffy dog, Scamp).There follows a series of events which tests all members of the team and introduces Jamie to the strange, wonderful but sometimes deadly world of the mythological and the fantastic. This is the first in a series of adventure books featuring Jamie a boy who learns that the world is a very different one than what we learn in the 'conventional' world.
