About this listen

A heist by the Serenity crew goes badly wrong in a captivating original Firefly tie-in novel from the award-winning series by Titan Books.

City of sin

Neapolis: a desert city on planet Bethel where all manner of entertainment is found: High-stakes gambling, luxurious hotels, exclusive clubs, and any form of diversion imaginable may be had for a price. It’s the eve of the annual carnival: three days of decadent revelry, and Serenity arrives to take a security job, guarding a costly shipment.

An unattainable ransom

Tragedy strikes: The shipment is stolen, and the wealthy owner kidnaps Zoë and Book, holding them to ransom for the lost shipment’s value. If Mal can’t find the enormous sum of 500 platinum by the next evening, both of them will be killed.

A race against time

As the carnival begins, the crew must attempt the impossible, calling on contacts, calling in favors, and revealing hidden talents to save their crewmates’ lives. Meanwhile, the hostages have their own plans....

Such a great book, a lot less dark than some of the other books in this series, but still with sufficient peril to keep the story tense.

Nice to see Inara and the Shepherd have such prominent roles as well.

As ever, wonderfully read.

Just what the doctor ordered

Another great installment in the series that feels like a natural continuation of the series. A bit of creative license taken with River but that's common in these books. Still an enjoyable story.

Great story

Great entry as always however not as good as the others. I like the character development in these books. As a fan of the series i was dubious about these books, now I can't wait for the next editions.

More Firefly, yes please.

Brilliant

Personally I think this series of books are better enjoyed through audio than reading them.
The narrator does a decent job with the characters, though some ring truer than others.
The stories are always a little on the plain Jayne side but that’s probably just because nothing can beat the actual series.

A decent scratch for the Firefly itch

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

A great story from all angles, really enjoyed this one. Not action packed but a good gripping story that ties together well.

Another superb Firefly story

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

easily the best book of this series and set before the end of the TV show so could easily be read out of sequence.

best book of the series.
