I Am Jade Falcon, by Robert Thurston, covers the end of the Refusal War from Clan Jade Falcon's point-of-view. The novel continues the plot of Bred for War and is the companion novel of Malicious Intent. The front page shows Joanna, the protagonist, after killing Natasha Kerensky in the Great Gash.
The novel was made available on BattleCorps on 6 March 2010 as a PDF file (text only, without cover, pictures, or any other interior artwork except for the usual BattleCorps frame graphics). The PDF copy includes a disclaimer stating that it was created from a pre-final edition text that might differ from the printed version and that canon-wise, the print edition trumps the PDF edition.
Contents
From the back cover
| “ | For years, Star Commander Joanna has had to live with the shame of the Jade Falcon defeat at Twycross, and the nightmares of the heroic Aidan Pryde flaunting his bloodname in her face.
Now, with the arrival of the new Star Colonel Ravill Pryde, who will lead them against the Wolf Clan, Joanna must once again fight for her chance to recapture the glory of her victory at Tukayyid. But will her advanced age, bring her to defeat again, or will being a Jade Falcon be enough for her to take on the legendary Black Widow in a repeat battle at the Great Gash on Twycross. |
