Welcome to a new season of Ye Olde Dragon's Library storytelling podcast!
Season 14 features chapters from FRIENDLY FIRE, Book 1 in the AFV Defender series, military science fiction.
These are the adventures of the crew of the E&D (exploration and diplomacy) ship, AFV Defender. While they aren't quite as death-defying as a certain other notorious ship in the Fleet, they're developing a legend of their own. Some good. Some bad. But most important, they're a family, with all the benefits and drawbacks.
Every day is a new adventure. If their misfit luck doesn't finally run out on them.
Friendly Fire, AFV Defender Book 1
A rescue mission turns into a battle to save a race of miniature dragons from genocide. They might just be sentient -- but more important, dracs could turn out to be the defensive weapon the Alliance needs against the Hiver threat. Genys and her crew could end up breaking dozens of regulations in the quest to save dracs and maybe the Human race. Just how much trouble could teleporting, fire-breathing creatures with the personalities of four-year-olds cause on board a military vessel?
The misfit luck of the AFV Defender might finally be running out.
