This week we're shifting gears into sharing selections from the audiobook of my novel, The Solandarian Game, which is now also available as an AI-Imagined Art Illustrated Version in ebook and PDF format. Every-other-week, between interviews, I'll be sharing a couple of chapters here on the podcast, and also posting some of the images from the chapters on my Facebook and Instagram feed. If you'd like to receive a free PDF of the first 5 chapters of the illustrated novel, shoot me an email and I'll send you the link. The ebook is available at Kindle and the Apple Bookstore, and also available as a PDF at my Patreon Shop.With this week's chapters, listeners are introduced to two more of our main characters, Hydar and Norbu. Hydar is a independent avatar of Maitreya who lives on the Humanist avatar world of Volunshari who suspects that their leader, Shuntsu, is up to no good. Norbu is a Priest of the Temple of the Mystic Toad on the experimental world of Solandaria who sets out on a quest with his daughter into the desert regions to see if they can locate the spot where a mysterious light fell out of the sky.
