No food. No shelter. No weapons. Enemies aplenty. And the only one watching his back is his captor.
Betrayed and stranded on a hostile alien planet, immortal king Pietas faces a dire ultimatum: half a million of his loyal followers lie ensnared in cryopods, set to unlock simultaneously-potentially sealing their doom. With no technology or resources at his disposal, these pods threaten to become tombs instead of sanctuaries.
As the clock ticks down, Pietas must summon every ounce of cunning to forge unexpected alliances. At his side is his sharp-tongued former captor, whose quick wit may be as dangerous as it is helpful, a brilliant telepathic weapons designer harboring secrets of her own, and a tribe of sentient panthers serving as his honor guard.
In a race against time, Pietas must navigate treacherous family betrayals and external threats to save his people from a gruesome fate. Will he rise to reclaim his throne, or watch as his legacy crumbles into oblivion?
Military sci-fi without the weaponry, but enemies and action aplenty.
