Two of the authors are personal friends of mine (Kindal Debenham and Annaliese Lemmon\u2014we were both in the same college writing group), but I&#8217;ve thoroughly enjoyed\u00a0their books and have no qualms recommending them.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll start with\u00a0<strong>Wolfhound<\/strong> by Kindal Debanham. This is a rip-roaring space adventure, and the first part of a trilogy that I highly recommend. Starship pilots from the frontier regions of space, fighting to defend their beloved home\u00a0from pirates and invasion. This is exactly the kind of book I used to scour the local library for as a kid.<\/p>\n <div id=\"mbt-container\"> <div class=\"mbt-book-archive\"><header class=\"mbt-book-archive-header\"><div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div><\/header><header class=\"mbt-book-archive-header\">\r\n\t<h1 class=\"mbt-book-archive-title\">Nothing Found<\/h1>\r\n<\/header><\/div> <\/div> \n<p>I first discovered\u00a0<strong>Date Night on Union Station<\/strong> from the Amazon also-boughts of my own\u00a0<strong>Star Wanderers<\/strong> books, and it did not disappoint.
