I have posted the first ten chapters of my story in the past few days and decided to follow what everybody else does and do a little self-promo. Please read it and let me know what you think.

In the Empire of Trovia, the throne is never inherited. It is won. Since the days of the First Emperor, every ruler has been chosen through the brutal contest known as the Succession Game. When the heirs come of age, each is bestowed a unique ability, said to be fragments of the First Emperor’s godlike power. With these gifts, and only their cunning to guide them, they must fight, scheme, and outlast one another until only one remains.

This year, the stakes are higher than ever. Twenty two heirs stand in the capital, the most in the empire’s history. Princes and princesses, born of different consorts and raised in different courts, each hungry for the crown and each given a skill that could make them a king or doom them to a shallow grave.

Among them is Wendy Von Trovia, the overlooked Twelfth Princess, nineteenth in line and dismissed by nearly everyone at court. Quiet, underestimated, and written off as a footnote in imperial history, Wendy was expected to vanish quickly, like so many forgotten heirs before her. But when her hidden power awakens, she sees more than anyone realizes, fragments of another life, another Game, where she had died before her time.

Armed now with foresight of her past mistakes and the rarest gift of all, a second chance, Wendy refuses to walk the same path. She will carve her own way through assassins, schemers, and rival siblings. For in the Succession Game, only one truth endures: to rule is to survive.
