Star Prince

FROM OUR EDITORS

The Star Prince is a romantic space adventure story with a fast-paced plot and engaging characters -- a rousing follow-up to The Star King. When they met, it was tough to say which of them had been having the worse day. Ian Hamilton, whose stepfather was the ruler of the universe, had managed to get himself, and the top-of-the-line spaceship he'd been entrusted with, stranded on a frontier backwater. Far from proving that he was worthy to be the next ruler, he seemed fated to live up to everyone's expectations of him as one of those backward Earthers. Princess Tee'ah, who had managed to earn her pilot's wings without her family's knowledge, and run away from an arranged marriage, had just seen her stolen transportation reclaimed. In a matter of moments, she expected to be caught and forced to return to the fate she'd fought so hard to avoid. That's when the handsome Earther offered to hire her to get him and his ship off world -- . For a partnership born of desperation, it worked remarkably well from the first. But, as Ian and Tee'ah traveled the starways together, they discovered two disturbing truths. First, there was something very, very wrong on the frontier worlds -- something that could plunge the universe into war and chaos. And second, there was something very, very right between them -- something that could only end in heartbreak because Tee'ah was promised to another man.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Imagine... Imagine for a moment that you're a twenty-year-old guy in college, working on a finance degree, when your divorced mother remarries-a king. But you're happy for her, and gradually you grow used to the idea. Imagine now that several years later your stepfather tells you that he's picked you to succeed him, and the next thing you know, you're the crown prince, thrust into a world you never envisioned, complicated by a court-load of scheming royals who don't think you belong there, either. And if that weren't enough, an independent-minded princess-in-peril lands in your arms, on the run from the very laws you pledged to uphold. Outmanned and outgunned, plowed under, fish out of water-at this point, any of those terms would describe you. Only allowing yourself to be overwhelmed is a luxury you can't afford; it seems that the entire kingdom is hurtling toward war, and you're the only one who can stop it...

FROM THE CRITICS
