About this listen
Seventeen-year-old Mei Nakamura’s life takes an unexpected turn when she inherits a seemingly ordinary jade dragon figurine from her grandmother. Little does she know that this seemingly simple object holds the key to a breathtaking adventure, transporting her from the familiar comfort of her modern life to the turbulent world of feudal Japan.
This is a world far removed from her own, a land of sharp-edged swords, shimmering kimonos, and creatures born from myth and legend. Here, amidst the clash of samurai steel and the whispered secrets of ancient spirits, Mei discovers a hidden family legacy connected to an age-old prophecy.
Her journey is not merely a quest for survival; it is a profound odyssey of self-discovery. She will learn the ways of the warrior under the tutelage of Takeshi, a young samurai, and Ryoko, a fierce female warrior who defies the limitations imposed on women in her society. She will confront prejudice, battle fearsome yokai, and navigate the treacherous currents of political intrigue, all while guided by the sentient jade dragon and the spirit of her grandmother, Aiko.
This introduction offers only a glimpse into the challenges and triumphs that lie ahead. As Mei navigates the unfamiliar landscape of feudal Japan, she will confront not only external threats but also the internal struggles of identity, courage, and self-belief. Her encounters with both human and mythical beings will test her resilience, sharpening her skills and molding her character.
The blending of historical fiction and fantasy allows for an exploration of themes that resonate with the realities of the past while immersing the listener in the wonder of the fantastical. The ancient traditions and beliefs of Japan will serve as both a backdrop and a crucial element in Mei's journey, adding depth and richness to the narrative.

Story
It was supposed to be a simple rescue mission—supposed to be. If Corporal John Harden had learned anything from his time in the 1215th Legion, it was that no mission went the way you expected. The Mission: Board the derelict cargo hauler DFMS Lumo, rescue any survivors, secure the vessel for return to the closest Dagdan Federation Port, and return safely to the Dagdan Federation Battlecruiser Nathanial B. Hughes. Now, he’s trapped aboard a derelict cargo hauler, low on ammo, and running out of options. Not the best showing for a freshly minted fire team leader.

Emperor Hazard is Dead! When the Teddy Bears ambush the ship carrying Emperor Hazard to a peace conference in the Zenkarr system, Britannia once again finds itself at war. The Teddy Bears have a plan, but Gathii Kong, now in command of the Imperial Force, doesn’t take the bait. He follows Hazard’s last order to fight smart and foils the Zenkarr Intelligence Minister’s plan to destroy Britannia’s fleet by not charging deeper into the system. But now Kong has the lion by the tail—he can’t follow the enemy fleet into the gravity well, nor can he let them out to terrorize the nearby systems.

On a night like any other, three mysterious women arrive to an inn separately, one with a fox that is more than it seems. Karsh, the innkeeper, has no choice but to let the tangled drama unfold beneath his roof. His stable boy, Rosseth, is so mesmerized by the three cloaked women, a warrior nun, a fabled adventurer, and a girl who was saved from drowning, that he soon uncovers a deep secret that was better off remaining hidden. And then there is Tikat, overwhelmed by tragedy, who continues his journey to the inn, refusing to let death bring an end his love.
