The Prince Awakens

Part 1 of the Prince of Britannia Saga series
Hazard King had always wanted to be an Imperial Fleet officer, just like his father.
But he's a Prince of the Realm, which make things a bit more… complicated. And when Hazard's parents tell him that they don't trust his older brother and want Hazard to be the Crown Prince-the heir to the throne-things go from bad to worse. Just when it seems they can't get any worse, the Empress is attacked.
What is a simple fleet lieutenant supposed to do with his mother in a coma, a seemingly invincible enemy on the offensive, a darkness from the past stirring, and his paranoid older brother trying to assassinate him? What Naval officers do best-improvise.
He's going to need all his skills, as well as the help of a former spy, a handful of Marines, and a few close relatives if he's to defend the Empire against all enemies-foreign and domestic.
