Blackwarren Reads: Certified Gold: On the Air, by David M. DeMar (Part 1)

Welcome back to Blackwarren Reads, where we begin Season 2 with our latest release, David M. DeMar's "On the Air", the opening of his "Certified Gold" urban fantasy series.

Welcome to Allora University, the Argent City's premier institute of higher learning! You'll find all kinds of mythic creatures here - including Allora University's newest freshman, Ricky Konacsz, next in line to be named king of the Dragons. Not that he ever wanted the job. He'd rather just listen to his vintage Joy Division LPs in peace.

Ricky's been having an eventful semester. His roommate is a Satyr, and his polycule vacillates between constantly propositioning Ricky and eating all his snacks. The Sidhe noble in Ricky's accounting class has been tormenting him nonstop, threatening to turn him into a set of matched luggage. And the human girl at the library front desk has been hunting him on another playing field altogether! All he wants to do is listen to music and be left alone - and maybe get a job working behind the scenes at the college radio station.

Ricky had hoped he could just have a normal life, but Fate had other plans. One night, he ends up behind the Allora University Radio's microphone instead of the soundboard. What began as a one-time event becomes a viral sensation. Things get even worse when he accidentally insults the father of a Sidhe noble on the air - the same noble who's been making his life miserable all semester. Now, all eyes are on him, and not in a good way. What's a young Dragon King to do?
