About this listen
After years of searching, Finn has finally found the motherload. Unfortunately, there’s no way to get it home. And he’s got to meet John Wayne.
Stranded and alone in Denver, Colorado, Finn and his partner Penny (a foot and a half long Faerie Dragon) search for friends and allies in this strange new land.
But something about this place isn’t right. Magic has gone underground, and has anyone seen John Wayne?
Lucky for Finn he’s a Dwarf, and underground is where he does his best work.
Join Finn, Penny, and their new friends on an adventure that spans the globe and holds the fate of an entire planet in its twists and turns. And just maybe a tall Dwarf and a small dragon can find their place in the universe.

Story
Finn and Penny have been here before and it wasn’t pretty. The Dark Star has a trick or two left up her sleeve. Can they risk it all to find out what’s next? Well, yeah. These guys are heroes. When the enemy is against the ropes you bring your friends and you strike hard and fast. With no clue of the enemy’s location, Finn grasps onto any lead he can find. The clues lead him to a revelation bigger than Finn finding out True Grit was remade with The Dude.

Story
Every time a shot rings out, a Valkyrie earns her wings. Mila is earning hers the hard way hunting down the monsters that have taken her sister. It was supposed to be a simple scouting mission. But the trail is leading her to an unexpected discovery. What if the things that go bump in the night start to slither out into the light? An ancient horror, full of malice and nightmares, is coming to the Idaho Wilderness. She should probably run, but Valkyries don't back down from a fight, no matter the risk.

Story
Austin detective Maggie Parker has seen some weird things in her day, but finding a surly gnome rooting through her garage beats all. Her world is about to be turned upside down in a frantic search for four Elementals. Not three, not five...but four. Why is it always four? Each one has an artifact that can keep the Earth humming along, but they need her to unite them. But the forces against her might get there first. A compass, a telescope, and untapped magic are her only tools.

Story
Out on his own as a surveyor, Major Corbin sleeps under the stars and calls his own shots. As a one-man operation without powers on a space colony with power-abusing supers, this is the life. Nothing lasts forever. The chance discovery of a mysterious substance changes everything when he gains superpowers and learns that it’s the key to saving the colony from an evil that nobody but he knows is coming. The kicker? Gaining powers means waking an ancient being that might be the difference between saving the universe or dying in the process.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

It's 1994, and three stand-up comedians have embarked on a tour of smaller communities across a remote stretch of rural countryside. Dale is a forty-something comic from Chicago who's on the back half of a mediocre career and thinking about quitting the business. Rynn is a twenty-something fast-rising comedy star from Dublin with a big Hollywood break on her horizon. The third performer is a local act, a late addition to the bill who has agreed to open the shows and do all the driving. He goes by the name Hobie Huge, and he is, indeed, enormous.

In the year 2107, the world has both made astounding leaps forward and reduced humanity to its most basic existence. While the megacorps and those who rule them enjoy lives of extraordinary comfort and ease, most people barely scrape by, doing whatever they can to keep going. Juliet Bianchi is one of the latter. She works cutting metal in a scrapyard and doesn't have much to show for it except for a small group of equally bereft, fiercely loyal friends. Still, she maintains a bright disposition, possessing more hope and optimism than anyone would expect her to—and she's going to need it.

Paxton never thought he’d be working for Cloud, the giant tech company that’s eaten much of the American economy. Much less that he’d be moving into one of the company’s sprawling live-work facilities. But compared to what’s left outside, Cloud’s bland chainstore life of gleaming entertainment halls, open-plan offices, and vast warehouses...well, it doesn’t seem so bad. It’s more than anyone else is offering.

A hero Finnegan Dragonbender
Much of this story is built from the world of Michael Anderle in The Magic Compass. The mechanics, who keep Earth running are gnomes called Huldus. Bubbles are the form of magic that magical creatures use. All humans are magical, but our magic has become dormant. A peabrain is that smaller brain buried at the top of your spine along the back of a person’s neck. It is undetected by science and holds the innate magic humans possess. It is the part that contains magic.
Earth is an organic ship with a level of sentience. Everything, even people on earth is cargo. It was pulled into the obit around the sun when a young gnome tried to steer around a meteor shower. He took the curve to sharply and Earth got sucked into the stream of the Milky Way.
Now welcome to Finn’s world. He is a 6ft 5in tall dwarf (and that is the correct term per Finn) who carries an axe called Fragar. He is a hero. I say that because many of our protagonist are anti-heros. Not Finnegan Dragonbender, third son of a dwarf king. His partner is Penny an elf dragon. They have been companions in space enjoying old earth reruns of John Wayne.
They end up on earth and they think they have hit pay dirt, but can they get back home? To navigate our world they have the assistance of an anthropologist, Mila Winters, a peabrain. Even being a peabrain she can take all the magic stuff around her pretty well. They team up together to rescue Mila’s co-worker from Dark Star. There is great fighting action, wit, humor and a little romance. I got a problem with the romance happening so quickly after 3 days. It was an enjoyable story.
