FROM THE BOOK JACKET:
Princess Sun has finally come of age.
Growing up in the shadow of her mother, Eirene, has been no easy task. The legendary queen-marshal did what everyone thought impossible: expel the invaders and build Chaonia into a magnificent republic, one to be respected-and feared.
But the cutthroat ambassador corps and conniving noble houses have never ceased to scheme-and they have plans that need Sun to be removed as heir, or better yet, dead.
To survive, the princess must rely on her wits and companions: her biggest rival, her secret lover, and a dangerous prisoner of war.
Take the brilliance and cunning courage of Princess Leia-add in a dazzling futuristic setting where pop culture and propaganda are one and the same-and hold on tight:
This is the space opera youve been waiting for.
