Once Upon A Lucky Star

Storm Redfield has lived long enough to know that nothing ever stays quiet for long. A decorated Navy Commander in the 23rd century, she has already navigated alien worlds, forged unlikely alliances, and survived encounters that would break most people twice over. When a routine return to Earth unravels into something far more dangerous, she faces new threats, unexpected complications, and a mission that pushes even her considerable resilience to its limits. The second Alpha Red novel builds on its predecessor's irreverent energy while raising the stakes considerably.

Abby Craden brings Storm to life with a performance that matches the character's sardonic wit and unflinching confidence. Her pacing carries the story through action sequences and quieter emotional beats without losing momentum, and she handles the tonal shifts between sharp humor and genuine tension with ease. At just over six hours, the runtime feels well-calibrated, and Craden's assured delivery keeps listeners engaged from the first scene to the last.
