Welcome! Glad you're enjoying the podcast. And what I'm also hearing here is perhaps we should do a better job of summarizing the stories if people are listening who haven't read them!
Quote from: Duralumin on Yesterday at 01:18:21 AMHello all - new member Duralumin here - I'm a longtime Alien and Predator fan - first saw Alien in 1979 while in high school so that should be a hint at my age - hope nobody minds a crusty old codger like myself stepping in with his "two-cents" from time to time. Glad to be here!
Welcome to the gang. There's plenty of old codgers on here already too!

It's better if you read The Cold Forge first; you'll get context for events and characters in Into Charybdis.

Funnily enough, huntsman spiders appear in Into Charybdis. Along with actual facehuggers, naturally.
Talk about double the terror for arachnophobians.

I love a good running gag. Ask anyone, I do. But I can keep it up no longer.

That is what is fun about a community forum, you miss something and someone else can enlighten you, and vice versa.
