Bengaria's War

A Tangled Web of Secrets and Revelations
Great battles are nothing new to the generations of oligarchs and aristocrats who rule the colonised systems of Earth's descendants. They are a necessary evil to protect star systems and outposts from greedy poachers and other systems bent on dominating the galaxy, as King Greycer of Strium System knows all too well. The king arranges to marry Ryn Bengaria, a young woman from Halantia, the main planet of the Strium System.

Unknown to Ryn, her life had been planned before she was even born. Through their marriage, King Greycer seeks to reclaim nine outposts from the underhanded regent, Xin Sibur. When the king is assassinated, Ryn finds herself a reluctant queen and war commander. With the help of her former weapons master, and an unlikely alliance with a commander of the feared Nezu Warrior clans, Ryn embarks on a path of duty and vengeance. Her quest to destroy Xin Sibur and secure the future of Strium System will go down in galactic history as Bengaria's War.
