Have Blaster, Will Travel

Have Blaster, Will Travel is an anthology of space opera adventure that follows the Bulldogs, people who signed on with the TransGalaxy interstellar shipping company to run away from the law, the criminals they offended, or a past that haunts them. Inspired by Firefly, Star Wars, and lots of other b-movie scifi, Bulldogs tells the stories of those who are desperate enough to take a job hauling volatile and hazardous cargo to the most dangerous places in the galaxy.

The fiction in this anthology will take place in the world of Bulldogs! the RPG, but you don’t have to know the game to enjoy the fiction. Anyone who likes fun space adventure will find a story to enjoy in this anthology.
