Synopsis

The Sovereign – An Empire at War. A Throne in Peril. A Battle for the Future.

For centuries, the Vassaryan Empire has ruled the stars, unchallenged. But when a warship falls from the heavens—its crew slaughtered and its mission a mystery—the empire teeters on the brink of chaos.

Prince Aldric Danarean, heir to a dying throne, is trained to fight, not to question. But as whispers of rebellion spread and enemies close in from all sides, he must uncover the truth before the empire burns from within.

His brother, Arem, has always lived in Aldric’s shadow—until now. With ambition outweighing loyalty, Arem must decide whether to stand with his family or seize a destiny of his own.

And in the depths of space, Raynard Sinclair, a battle-hardened commander, faces a war that could change everything. The enemy is coming. The empire is crumbling. And in the end, only one will stand sovereign.

The first book in a thrilling sci-fi/fantasy trilogy, The Sovereign is a high-stakes tale of war, honor, and betrayal. Perfect for fans of epic sci-fi like Dune, Star Wars, and The Expanse.

Présentation de l'éditeur

In a gloomy temple high in the crag of a weathered mountain, a druid pours over a manuscript thick with dust. His limpid eyes scan the ancient texts, looking for some clue—some hint that he might be mistaken. His short, rasping breath is barely audible above the wind that moans around the rotting stone outside. Candlelight flickers over the yellowed scripts, cracking as his gnarled fingers fumble with the pages. He hopes he’s read the signs wrong. Turning another page he licks his thin lips, reading along in the words of a long forgotten tongue. He prays the prophecies are false. He must be mistaken—it cannot be true. But the words are clear, set down in the ages when the gods still roamed the forests of Errolor. After ten thousand years, the Seven Regrets of the World are finally at an end. Turning a fearful eye to the window, the old man peers out at the white city of Chaldrea beyond, glittering and serene on its little green isle in the lake. Warnings will do no good, for who can stop the gods? Neither the armies of the emperor nor his mighty fleet of Imperial starships can slow the coming storm. Not even the Mother of the Starborn can save the empire now. Victus—the Wandering Chaos—has returned. The line of emperors has fallen, and tomorrow, the world will end.
