Description

Join Varian, Isra and Ren as they battle to maintain every ounce of their humanity against a despotic regime determined to turn them into monsters. As prototype enhanced soldiers they have been raised in the lab and on the training quad, and now it’s time to unleash them on the world. Their adopted father, President of the Dex Industries weapons corporation and the newly formed Dex Island nation, uses every asset at his disposal to steer world politics… but some assets are easier to control than others. Beyond the borders of Dex Island, Varian, Isra and Ren discover new dangers… and new levels of freedom. The Dex Legacy is an award-winning full cast audio drama written by Emily Inkpen and produced by Alternative Stories. Website: thedexlegacy.com

For Varian, Isra and Ren, the adopted children of President Nathaniel Dex of the Dex Island munitions corporation, life is one long fight for survival. As genetically enhanced primary soldier prototypes, they have been raised between the military base and the lab, enduring torturous treatments and extreme training exercises, and now they’ve been given the chance to leave it all behind. To them, deployment looks like freedom and killing another country’s enemies is an easy price to pay, but it doesn’t take long for those enemies to teach them that war is not a transaction, and killing is always personal. Staring down the barrel of a grim future split between mistreatment at home and endless battles overseas, they are forced to find hope in the worst possible places.
