The Phoenix Exultant Ep. 37: Twelfth’s Night Eve

Posted December 11, 2024 By John C Wright

From THE PHOENIX EXULTANT, vol. II of my debut trilogy.

In the far future, where men are as gods, living lives of perfect peace and prosperity, Phaethon of Rhadamanthus discovers all memory of his lifework has been hidden from him. For he is the engineer of the sole starship his civilization has ever produced: the mighty, majestic, and immense Phoenix Exultant. She is a ship to conquer the stars.

But such ambition is outlawed in utopia. Phaethon is a pariah, exiled mentally and physically, denuded of possessions, and cast down among outcasts. His life is sought by sinister agents of the Silent Oecumene: an apocalyptic menace none but he dares see. For in a world where mind or memory can be edited at will, what is truth?

Murphy’s War by Stephen G Johnson

Posted December 11, 2024 By John C Wright

These are books by a personal friend of mine, Steven G. Johnson, which I am willing to recommend just on the strength of his role playing games he moderated back when we were in school together. He knows how to cobble together a fun, fast-moving action-adventure plot.

Starquest: Space Pirates of Andromeda audio preview

Posted November 11, 2024 By John C Wright

This is an experimental audiobook preview of the prologue STARQUEST: SPACE PIRATES OF ANDROMEDA made by a friend and patron of mine. Listen and enjoy!

I am seriously debating whether to do the audiobook myself, in order to get the accents correct, but this robot reading sounds much better than anything I would have expected.
