The adrenaline-fueled, Star Wars-style sequel to Behind the Throne, a new space adventure series from author K.B. Wagers.

Former gunrunner-turned-Empress Hail Bristol was dragged back to her home planet to fill her rightful position in the palace. With her sisters and parents murdered, the Indranan empire is on the brink of war. Hail must quickly make alliances with nearby worlds if she has any hope of surviving her rule.

When peace talks turn violent and Hail realizes she’s been betrayed, she must rely on her old gunrunning ways to get out of trouble. With help from an old boss and some surprising new allies, she must risk everything to save her world.

Series:

  • A hell of a ride... it has an exuberance, an utter delight in putting its space opera operatics right into your face that makes it just about entirely wonderful as an example of the genre: I enjoyed the hell out of it, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes next.

  • "'Crown' is fastpaced, and its focus on a female action heroine defined by her decisions rather than romance is refreshing and fun."

  • "Two books in, this series has exemplified political plotting as compelling as the badass heroine at its center."
