A New Novella by J.J. Campanella

This week Uvula Audio premieres an SF novella from J.J. Campanella. The actual podcast gives the full history of the story which dates back about 12 years in its writing, but essentially the story asks what might happen if the Islamic Jihad against the west succeeded. In short,what if the terrorists won? Would there be anything left of Western civilization to stand in their way to total domination? What might arise out of the dust of the west that could resist the martial efforts of a dozen nations.. . ? This story suggests one possibility.. . . By the way, that wonderful crusader pictured in the web page photo above was painted upon the nosecone of a WWII fighter plane. It can be observed in the flesh at a hangar in the New England Air Museum. (Rated M for mature themes and violence.)
You won't hear a better narrator anywhere than J.J. Campanella (ok, Scott Brick is my new crush as a narrator but otherwise, I'm sayin'!). I loved his book The Standards of Creation (my review is here. This will be a treat!
