Empress Fallen

Does love have the power to overcome evil?

It is the year 7056. In a solar system hundreds of light years from Earth, the broken and weary human race has lost its path, tainted by millennia of suffering and oppression. The corrupt Empress has utterly succumbed to the dark seductions of greed and now hides a deadly secret, one that could bring about the annihilation of humanity. Will the greatest conspiracy of all time go undiscovered?

But revolution is stirring. Slave girl Aliya Soter and rebel pilot Miriam Ferox are embroiled in a daring race against time as a mysterious anomaly hurtles towards the solar system. The slave colonies are revolting, the stock markets are poised on the brink of collapse, and overhanging everything are the forbidden rumours of a mysterious resistance force . . . Can they bring down the Empire once and for all?

But all is not as it seems. And with this simple realisation it becomes clear, this is just the beginning of something far greater.

The first instalment in the Through Darkness trilogy, Bethan-Ann Scott's debut propels the reader through an epic space opera adventure, raising profound questions of morality and man's inhumanity to man. Twists and cliffhangers unfold relentlessly throughout the book, entertaining the reader at every turn, a must-read for fans of The Hunger Games.

This is sic-fi like you've never seen it before.
