Browncoats' Wiki
Links to other podcasts, Firefly related things and more, can all be found at the Browncoats' Wiki. Please help maintain this resource by keeping it up-to-date and accurate.
Serialized Audio Fiction
In the days before this website, Badger Books used to be our collection of Firefly-related audio books and audio dramas. It used a technology similar to that of Podiobooks to deliver all episodes in the right order, and at a schedule of your own choosing.
The Badger Books website has now been completely superseded by this one, and all of the features of Badger Books can now be found in our series and guest series pages.
Music
You can find lots of Firefly music on this site, both in our Music Section, and in our Songs from the Black collections (see guest series).
The Firefly Timeline
The Firefly Timeline. This is intended as a resource for Browncoats, especially useful for writers of fanfic, etc.
Chinese
Chinese words and phrases you might find useful, links to Chinese resources on the web, and so on, can all be found here.
