Reign of Four

Millennia ago, planet Helios held a grand technological civilization. But the Cataclysm tore the land apart, and the survivors were forced to flee to the Six Stations, the artificial planetoids that orbited Helios. It did not take long for their society to devolve into a virtual medieval world, with barely enough technology to survive the harshness of life in space. Out of this culture arose a line of monarchs called the Reign of Four. Alexis Teirmont was the First. He was a visionary, a warrior and a tyrant who was not immune to egotism, cruelty, and revenge. He would change the very fabric of the System. His reign would be remembered throughout history for both the good-and the bad.

Alexis Teirmont was a visionary and merciless leader who unified the people struggled to survive on one of six artificial planetoids known as the Stations. But, now his son, Alexis the Second, must reign as Master of Station Aleon. And, Alexis is not his father. An unapologetic hedonist from the wild lands of the Prime, Alexis revels in the finer pleasures of life. Once, such a temperament would be a sign of nobility. But, for a Master of Station, it is near suicide. Now Alexis must convince the passengers of Station Aelon that he is fit to rule. With the fate of their precarious civilization in his hands, failing to convince could be deadly.

Station Aleon, a planetoid of System Helios, has withstood calamitous struggles thanks to the strong rule of its first two Masters of Station, Alexis Teirmont and his son, Alexis the Second. As it comes time for Alexis the Third to reign, the nobility wonders if they are ready for the first Mistress of Station Aelon. The first female monarch in the history of System Helios, Alexis the Third is a true Teirmont in temperament and passion. Yet she is unique in ways no one expected. Despite the disdain, aggression, contempt, and disgust of the male nobility for a female ruler, Alexis the Third proves that gender was not what made a monarch. Her rule is about to change System Helios forever.

The 4th ruler in a fearsome line of succession pursues an interplanetary empire in the final volume of this thrilling science fiction saga. As the new Master of Station Aleon and its Prime, Alexis Teirmont the Fourth inherits the mantle of a fearsome dynasty. The son of a legendary mother, he intends to rule by the blade and expand his empire across System Helios. He is determined to destroy all that stands in the way of his claim to a second crown. The first master to ever attempt ruling two stations and primes, Alexis sets into motion an avalanche of events. From the orbit of the stations around Helios, to the gas covered lands of the planet, He is about to leave a bloody mark on history that will not soon be forgotten.
