New Firefly fanfic novel by Steven Brust
The author Steven Brust, best known for his long-running Vlad Taltos fantasy series, has just released a fanfic novel set in the Firefly world. For interested Browncoats, it’s set in the time between when the Firefly TV series ends and the Serenity movie starts, so there are no obvious continuity conflicts. I’ve read it and it’s quite amazing how well Mr. Brust captures each of the Firefly’s characters and the ‘verse in which they live. I’ve been reading Steven Brust novels for ten years now and I believe he deserves all the new fans he’ll get from this project. Browncoats have the delicious treat in store for them of meeting Vlad and Aliera and Morrolan and all the rest for the first time, not to mention the non-Vlad novels that are just as worth the time spent reading them.
It’s a fast read and a delightful one, and should please Brust fans and Firefly fans alike. Take a look at My Own Kind Of Freedom, you’ll be glad you did!
