ORRIONA Gay Space Opera Cinematic Audiobook Series - A.X. Patrick

Welcome aboard the Orriona—where the galaxy is queer-norm, found families are forged in the fire, and hope burns brightest in the darkest corners of the void.

ORRIONA is a multi-voice audio drama series that weaves cinematic sci-fi action with deeply personal character journeys. No coming-out angst. No homophobia. Just grand space adventures where queer love and friendship are as natural as starlight.

THE STORY SO FAR:
When High Priestess Nienna's ceremonial fleet is ambushed by an ancient enemy, her last surviving Warden witnesses a desperate sacrifice that rewrites the timeline itself. Meanwhile, the sentient starship Orriona—after centuries of exile—receives her old friend's distress call and races to mount a rescue.

But she can't do it alone.

Her search for a crew leads to Edgepoint Station, a decaying frontier outpost where misfits become family: a disgraced pilot searching for his father's ghost ship, a con artist with dangerous skills and buried secrets, a theatrical medic duo fleeing their past, an engineer haunted by what she's lost, and the last Warden of a murdered High Priestess.

Together, they'll chase stolen artifacts across the galaxy, uncover conspiracies that threaten the foundations of civilization, and discover that the strongest shields aren't made of technology—they're built from trust, loyalty, and love.
