i don't know your state's laws, but there is a little thing called due process. im not sure if it applies here but i basically says... if you are arrested(which i assume you were) then the police are obligated to file and process your citation with a reasonable timeframe(24 hrs on a weekday, 72 hrs on a weekend). if you think that they forgot or something, guess again. In Virginia, it will be arrested at site and book at police station when arrived. If happed at weekend, it will stay in jail until bond out or seeing judge on Monday.

Can a civilian narcotics officer follow you home and use an on duty police officers tickets book and write a citation?

I've never heard of a 'civilian narcotics officer." If you are referring to a narcotics officer who works undercover or in civilian clothing - he is STILL a police officer. Whatever action he took that necessitated the issuing of a ticket - police officers don't 'own' the ticket books they carry. A ticket book is nothing but a pad of legal forms that can be utilized by ANY sworn law enforcement officer for issuing summonses. If that describes the incident you are referring to then, yes, it was legal.
