About this series
With the battalion awakened, the galaxy's future hangs in the balance. Hoping to build upon the scant information she's gathered so far, Ellie travels to T'al Eidyn, seeking the advice of temple scholars. But the ancient academy holds no answers and worse, evidence of tampering in the archive leads to more questions and distrust.
Frustrated with dead ends, her only hope lies in finding the missing records, rumored to contain the forbidden truth of the Kyroibi's creation and purpose. But to do so, she'll have to travel to Helsyn, a planet still controlled by the Empire, risking the progress her people have made towards a system-wide truce.
Ellie is willing to take that risk, but is she prepared for what she may find? Was the creation of the Kyroibi ultimately worth the price of peace? And if not, does she have the courage to make the sacrifice needed to save the galaxy?

- A Space Girl from Earth: The Kyroibi Trilogy, #1
1
Yesterday, her biggest worry was failing an exam. Today, it's saving the galaxy. From her six foot four inch height to the uniform white dots that peppered her skin in perfect geometric patterns, Ellie Whitmore was certainly unusual, but an alien from the other side of the galaxy? Of course not. That's just what the tabloids said to sell papers. Or so she thought. Turns out not only is Ellie an alien, but an ancient and powerful relic housing the forbidden knowledge of a lost civilization is hidden deep within her genetic code. Suddenly she's on the run from a malevolent Emperor who sees her as the key to ruling the galaxy. Even her own mother can't resist the draw of ultimate power and the one person Ellie might be able to trust is an unrepentant assassin who may be responsible for her life's upheaval. Now, she must travel to a distant planet and unlock the secrets to restoring peace and ending tyranny. But how can anyone expect her to save the galaxy when she can't even pass organic chemistry?
- The Pricess Rebellion: The Kyroibi Trilogy, #2
2
Ellie only wanted to save the world; she never wanted to rule it. But as the true master of the Kyroibi and heir to the Korghetian throne, she's now expected to do both. Worse, she's also expected to play nice with the other leaders of the Ghowrn Alliance, including the overbearing Prince Gevandar, who sees her as nothing more than a weapon to unleash upon the Huptsovian Empire. When imperial ships are discovered lurking in Ghowrn space, war becomes inevitable. Ellie finds herself pressured to use the automaton army under her command to end the battle once and for all. With only a handful of allies, she instead embarks on a mission to free the Alliance planets, determined to avoid a full scale robot invasion. Besides, the more she learns about her mysterious battalion, the more she wonders if peace was ever truly their purpose. And if so, at what cost?
