In a desperate mission, the crew of Serenity faces explosive challenges and a missing captain in Firefly - Big Damn Hero.
In Firefly - Big Damn Hero, readers are transported back to the beloved universe of the cult classic series, where the stakes are high and the adventures are thrilling. Captain Mal Reynolds is in a tight spot as he takes on what should be a simple job: transporting five crates from the planet Persephone. However, with Badger as the client, nothing is ever as it seems. These crates are not just ordinary cargo; they are packed with explosives that could detonate at the slightest disturbance. As Mal struggles to keep his ship, Serenity, afloat, the tension builds with every moment that passes.
Just as the mission is about to commence, disaster strikes when Mal mysteriously disappears. This leaves Zoë, the first mate, in a precarious position. With the cargo becoming increasingly unstable and Alliance cruisers circling like vultures, she must make a critical decision. Should she risk everything to find her captain, or focus on the safety of the crew? The clock is ticking, and the pressure mounts as the situation spirals out of control.
Amidst this chaos, rumors of a vengeful army of Browncoat veterans emerge, seeking retribution for their past grievances. As the crew grapples with the possibility that Mal may be hiding a dark secret from the war, they race against time to uncover the truth. Firefly - Big Damn Hero is a gripping tale of loyalty, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bonds of friendship in the face of overwhelming odds.
"[I am] delighted to be bringing new, official stories to fans of a show that has continued to grow in popularity over the years, finding new audiences in an unprecedented way," commissioning editor Cat Camacho said in a statement. "Firefly is a hugely unique IP and Titan Books is excited to be becoming part of its legacy." - Entertainment Weekly Via Entertainment Weekly, series creator Joss Whedon will be a consulting editor on the new Fireflynovels, and they will all be official stories within the canon of the franchise. The first novel, Firefly: Big Damn Hero, will be written by Nancy Holder. That book will launch the line in October with a story that finds Malcolm Reynolds, the captain of Serenity and its crew, kidnapped by "a bunch of embittered veteran Browncoats." For anyone new to the franchise, Browncoats were the nicknames for the rebels who lost an intergalactic civil war with the Alliance. Mal and his right-hand woman, Zoe Alleyne, were also Browncoats. - Nerdist
