    Dronethology Three Description 
    From fire rescues to grand robberies, from swarms on the battlefront to marriage proposals, drones are going to be used everywhere for almost every conceivable thing, and many inconceivable. 
    In this volume I try to bring as many new ideas as possible; from a man telling the tale how he earned his grubstake to his grandson, to a crew hunting down a the dreaded and feared, Meglodon, off Hawaii. 
    There is the matter of a very strange hummingbird, to an electronic scarecrow. And then of course there are the corrupt and more corrupt government contracts, the hunt for the ever elusive Yeti, and even some governmental representatives hunting down the ever elusive unicorn. 
    Come, turn a few pages and see if you can get lost from the real world and slide into mine, at least for a little while and forget what is beyond your door for a bit. 
    Thank You for investing some of your time with me.
