True Companions, by D.J. NoldRaven Nighthunter, telempath, healer, and warrior, is in the service of the Powers. She has recently been supplied with a husband, Colonel Jorden Madwolf. He and his three companions have swelled her team from three to seven.

Respect and affection notwithstanding, there’s a head-on collision of cultures between the humans and Raven and her alien comrades that make her feel like pulling out handfuls of her body fur.

Directed to various worlds in need of their unique brand of aid, the—not always cooperating—team find themselves in orbit around a new planet. Nothing goes as expected, beginning with the death of Raven’s small, winged friend.

Her own unlooked for role as the Promised One and having to add an eight-foot tall, magic-wielding lionoid to an already sometimes volatile relationship stew will test the limits of Raven’s abilities—and patience.
