Alan F Troop (1945- )

Troop was born in New Jersey, raised on Miami Beach, and has lived in South Florida since 1954. He graduated from The University of Miami and served a tour in the Army as a medic during the Vietnam War. He was paralyzed in a bodysurfing accident in 1977, but remains an avid sailor.

The Dragon DelaSangre: Troop can’t quite pull it off

The Dragon DelaSangre by Alan F. Troop

Peter DelaSangre is a dragon. Yes, he looks human; that’s because dragons are shapeshifters. And he appreciates a lot about the human race, including such things as television, music, and women — but he probably appreciates the way they taste most of all. Because for dragons, humans are prey, and nothing else will really do, at least not in the long run.

Alan F. Troop’s protagonist in his first novel, The Dragon DelaSangre, is therefore not a likeable character.

I felt just the same. The prose and character work was excellent. The larger story was unsatisfying, especially compared to…
