Destiny's Drum: Golden Age Stories

Written by L. Ron Hubbard

Narrated by R.F. Daley, Michelle Stafford, Rick Pasqualone and 2 more

Phil Sheridan is a soldier, adventurer, and man of the world—with a touch of con man thrown in for good measure. But Sheridan's world-wandering ways may soon come to a very abrupt—and violent—end ... on the long-forgotten Indonesian island of Kamling.

Falling into the hands of a bloodthirsty tribe led by the notorious slave trader known as Portuguese Joe, Sheridan discovers that there's not enough room on the island for the two of them. And Portuguese Joe has the perfect solution: dispatch Sheridan to another world ... with the help of a firing squad.

But Sheridan has other plans. The island is home to a hidden fortune in gold—and a gold miner's beautiful daughter—and he means to get his hands on both of them. If he can avoid the exotic dangers lurking at every turn.

L. Ron Hubbard

With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 350 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most enduring and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard. Then too, of course, there is all L. Ron Hubbard represents as the Founder of Dianetics and Scientology and thus the only major religion born in the 20th century.
