Publisher's summary

Their captivity was traumatizing. And draining. But revenge is in the blood for a group of brave survivors in this chilling short story of conspiracies and youthful pleasures gone awry.

Postmillennials thought they would find paradise on Luna Farm, and its sister enclaves, Europa, Crescent, and Blue, in exchange for a weekly bloodletting of their medicinal plasma—a precious corrective to aging. But in this isolated utopia, Billy Cantor stumbled into a nightmare. When his rebellious crew stages a desperate attempt to liberate their fellow harvested youths, they end up on a crash course with one caged young man who could be their savior or destroyer. Will deliverance have a price too?

Blue Dog is part 2 of the Young Blood Trilogy, a provocative and darkly satiric commentary on youthful dreams and cold-blooded reality. Read or listen in a single sitting.

The Helter Skelter jagged middle

“The future has ever only belonged to the highest bidder.”
Novella two brings new MC Eli and the experimental madness of the Blue blood-farm. If you can’t handle the perversion of religion into a Charles Manson cult of dog-eat-dog, evil-is-good mentality, then put down the blue pill and walk away. On the other hand, if you appreciate twisted satire and random points about the deeper meaning of Jaws, then this is a bitter pill with the best kind of bite.

Crazy

This is quite something, this play in three acts...

Loved the performance by MacLeod Andrews and Preston Butler III !! I don't think any other voices could pull this story to where it's going...

I thought Youngblood was crazy, well Blue Dog takes the cake (for now, 'cause yes, there's still Cresent Moon to be had... we shall see)

Eli's character and his upbringing is something else...I suppose this is what brainwashing starting at a very young age and unhealthy parenting can do... so sad, but in the end, everything happens for a reason, right?

Thrilling Continuation - Superb Narration

This was the second book in the Young Blood trilogy. Having enjoyed the first book, I'm glad the author expanded on the story and made it a trilogy.
After the dramatic events of the first book, Young Blood must deal with the aftermath and what to do about the other colony survivors. A dangerous new man also enters into the mix. While this is a great book, this story packs more of a punch on audio. Both narrators brilliantly bring their characters to life with depth and passion and it is thrilling to hear the story in their words. Many holy s**t and WTF moments abound. This also leads to the inevitable conclusion coming up in the third book. Excellent! Would make a fantastic show or film.
