Book Description
Long ago the development of the super-light drive enabled Mankind to leave an exhausted and overcrowded Earth and discover whole new worlds to explore, conquer and exploit. Many centuries later, population pressure led to ferocious internecine warfare with the loss of billions of lives and the technology that enabled humans to reach for the stars and populate them. The rediscovery of the super-light drive by the inhabitants of the Planet Sapphire saved Mankind from gradual extinction - and the formation of The Galactic Empire brought it a millennium and more of peace and prosperity. But then, in the recent past, an Empress' desire to save the life of the twin that tradition insisted should be terminated leads to devastating consequences for the Empire. Only Morturina, the present Empress, aided by her small team of loyal followers and the extraordinary Prince Kazii-Ra of the Tezu Household, stands in the way of the revenge of Hial, Empress of the 'Shadow Empire' - the total destruction of their ordered universe
Synopsis
She was the only one who could unite the Empire and maintain security for its citizens. But she was threatened by the Shadow Empire, led by her mysterious cousin Hial. Morturina had to survive - at least until she had borne an heir to the imperial throne.
