Titan Books hatte eine Buchtrilogie angekündigt, die sich um FIREFLY dreht, Joss Whedons Western- SF-Serie, die von Fox vorzeitig abgesetzt wurde und längst Kultstatus hat. Käufer dafür sollten somit eine sichere Bank sein.
Der Roman FIREFLY: BIG DAMN HERO wurde vom britischen Autor James Lovegrove geschrieben, das Storykonzept stammt von Nancy Holder (BUFFY), er erscheint am 20. November 2018 und kann bereits vorbestellt werden. Der Werbetext liest sich wie folgt:
The Battle of Serenity Valley was the turning point that led the Independents to their defeat at the hands of the Alliance. Yet the Browncoats had held the valley for weeks against all odds, before being ordered to lay down their arms. Command stated they refused to send in airpower because the ground war was »too hot.« But the soldiers who were there insist that was not true…
While picking up a new cargo on Persephone, Captain Malcolm Reynolds is kidnapped by a bunch of embittered veteran Browncoats who suspect him of sabotaging the Independents during the war. As the rest of the crew struggle to locate him, Mal is placed on trial for his life, fighting compelling evidence that someone did indeed betray them to the Alliance all those years ago. As old comrades and old rivals crawl out of the woodwork, Mal must prove his innocence, but his captors are desperate and destitute, and will settle for nothing less than the culprit’s blood.
Für das Hardcover muss ein Browncoat 16,99 Credits berappen, die Kindle-Fassung kostet 9,16 Credits.
