Dragon's Plight (Badlands Paranormal Police Department Book 2) Kindle Edition

What do you call an unarmed PPD officer in the middle of the Badlands? A victim.
Chief Zeke Phoenix survived his funeral party…barely. Now survival turns into mayhem management as he works to turn his team's begrudging respect into a force that’ll keep the Badlands in check. When an unmarked package hits his desk, mayhem turns to chaos.

The package’s contents trigger a chain of events, leaving the only true law of the land understaffed, unarmed, and under attack.

They're one major assault away from being wiped out.

But Zeke Phoenix isn’t about to let that happen. Needing a new batch of weapons—and fast—Zeke leads his crew across the wasteland. Forced to join with assassin hellions, they battle a constant barrage of villainy. If that wasn't bad enough, Zeke's little brother is along for the ride.

The question is whether Babysitter Zeke and the Badlands PPD can survive this road trip before they crash and burn.

Badlands

Badlands
Don't mess with a dragon

Zeke is all about honor and doing the right thing. But he's learning the hard way that sometimes you have to do the wrong thing in order to make the right things work out.

Zeke Phoenix is a dragon who was raised by valkyries and is now the chief of the Badlands PPD.

His crew is deranged, suicidal, and darn good at their jobs.

The Badlands isn't what you might consider a vacation destination. It's hot, dangerous, and full of criminal activity. It doesn't help that the primary power points consist of dragons, hellions, and the denizens of Hell.

Zeke Phoenix is the new chief of the Badlands PPD, though, and he takes that job seriously.

Too bad the people of the Badlands don't care.

Even his own team is betting on how long he'll survive before the next chief is sworn in.

Excellent fast paced story with action, adventure and more snark than you can shake a stick at. But read the book it's more fun than shaking a stick! Seriously loved this story and I'm sure that the next book will be great as well!

Someone has destroyed the Badlands PPD ammo depot.
It'll take a Netherworld Proper Run to resupply. We got us a convoy. Who's in? Only PPD's A team, a Hellion, and the chief's little brother is along for the ride.
Everyone is after them, including the Accountants... It'll take serious drifting skills to survive the ride down Deadman's Drift road. Even if they get the weapons they need, they STILL have to get back.
A fun, action packed book.

Another great installment in the Badlands Paranormal Police Department series. The police department gets blown up along with all of the Police weaponry. And to top it all off, all the bad guys know it. Alpha team needs to get a new shipment of weapons back to the PD while being chased by every criminal element in the badlands. Great action packed book with lost of character development, and story telling.

I love the whimsical nature of this series, and I love the characters. In the second book, Zeke’s place of business is bombed, and he and his colleagues becomes a target for many gangs when most of their weapons are destroyed. A quest for more weapons ensues, and like always, hilarity also ensues. I just loved this fun, action-paced adventure, and I love the addition of Zeke’s brother; he is great! If you love the rest of the series, you need to give this one a try. You don’t need to have read the previous book in the series to enjoy this one. I highly recommend this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as expected
Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2019

I really enjoyed the first Badlands PPD book, and looked forward to this one. It was decent, but not as good as the first one. There was an excessive amount of juvenile and sexual humor here that was unnecessary to a good story with these characters. I felt like a bunch of high school or college boys got together to write it. I expect some of that from the kind of characters in this book, but this went overboard, I was tired of it by about 1/3 through the book. I hope book 3 returns to the quality of book 1. And I hope we see more of Bernard, his character has real potential!

This is the latest in the adventures of Zeke Phoenix, the new chief of the Badlands, and he is a dragon.
Also, he foolishly thought it was starting to get better, as he handled his little party. Well, that was until someone blew up the place and he needed to get new weapons. Which meant a trip to the Wall.

But what is a road trip without family, as his mother drops off his little brother, a Bragon, with the mind of a child and the killer skills of an assassin, which he tends to black out when he does it.

The whole crew packs up in some deadhuals add Rose's old driving instructor and a bunch people out to stop/ or and kill them. And you have a great road trip.

Loved the book can't wait for the next one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great PPD series!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 9, 2019

This is the second book about Zeke Phoenix which continues on from the first book Dragon’s Torment about the dragon who was brought up by Valkyries and has the dubious honour of being Chief for the Badlands Paranormal Police Department as long as he survives the attempts on his life. It is linked to, but still works if you haven't read, the Ian Dex series which started with The Merging. The great storyline is there from the start and the team are all the better for being fun, sarcastic and neither perfect nor pc. There is a great mixture of humour, action and storyline in this next book of another addictive series which kept me wanting to read more even though I knew I had to get up early for work in the morning?! I have been enjoying the development of all of the PPD series and can’t wait for more!

Loving the way the team are coming together, don't want to spoil the book for others,so won't say to much. I think Zek is a great character and will be a hard chief once he gets things how he wants them. One thing I'm glad I'm not in the badlands it's going to get tough out there. Great read couldn't put it down,I just had to see the end.

This is the best of this series yet, the humour,team bonding and the sexual innuendo runs rampant.
This is more of a team bonding compared to a lot of other books with a few new characters that I'm sure will be firm favourites further on.
Just loved this and is a real satisfying page turner.

Another great addition to the Badlands.
Mr Sanchez brings a great sense of humour and different writing style but this works so nicely with the other writers within the same world.
I look forward to more with Zeke and his colleagues.
