Galaxy on Fire Series

The Galactic Kingdom was located in the Scutum-Centaurus Arm of the Milky Way. Roughly ten thousand to fifteen thousand Light Years from SOL. It was a Kingdom of over one thousand star systems. For generations, the King and Queen would send their only child (male) to some far-off star system to grow, theoretically safe from assassins in the Kingdom. Typically, the Prince would go to one-star system, and his betrothed would be sent to another to be raised - for safety. This practice has been done for generations. There was always someone who would want the new heir and future queen dead. Usually, the King and Queen would have one male child to ensure no rivals to the throne. By sheer accident, King Randolph and Queen Suzanne had four boys in one birth. Randolph came out first, then Francis, Rothchild, and finally Reginald. Eventually, the three brothers decide they want the throne and are willing to usurp the King and Queen and kill the rightful heir and future bride. Lady Michelle is in Caspra (what we on Earth call the Ursae-Majoris star system), about forty-nine light years from SOL. Prince Lee was on Earth but lost to his protectors. The three brothers overthrow the King and kill him. They send fleets to wipe out all life in SOL to ensure they get the Prince. A star destroyer is sent to Caspra to kill Lady Michelle or wipe the planet out. Lady Michelle and her protection force head to SOL to find the Prince. A small for flees the Kingdom in search of Lady Michelle and Prince Lee - still loyal to the crown. Queen Suzanne and a respectable force escape and head to SOL. Note: The Queen didn't flee by choice. The King intervened and had her whisked to a force to go to Prince Lee's aid. The three brothers send fleets at staggered times to wipe out SOL. Ingenuity on the defender's part saves SOL and Prince Lee. The defeat of the three fleets puts the Galaxy on Fire. SOL must find allies and level the playing field with the Galactic Kingdom, which has now been broken into three Kingdoms - book two takes off from here.

Three uncles from the Galactic Kingdom have attacked Capra and SOL. Capra was attacked as Lady Michelle was betrothed to the future king of the Kingdom. SOL was attacked as the future king. King Lee was raised on Earth. SOL bore the brunt of the assault. Three uncles were bent on wiping out all life on Earth to ensure King Lee was killed. Each uncle sent a fleet defeated by King Lees' 'Guardian' StarForce, Lady Michelles' StarForce, and Captain Lorans' StarForce. Eventually, a final StarForce of Quenne Suzzane arrives, and together, they eliminate three hostile fleets. The three uncles have murdered King Lees' father, Randolph. A new star nation starts from the attack and grows to encompass other sentient species from the attack. Much smaller than the Galactic Kingdom, a plan has to evolve to ensure the safety of Capra and SOL.

SOL and Capra had survived several attacks of the splintered Galactic Kingdom. Each star nation had become a target of the Galactic Kingdom, and continued existence wasn't an option available to them. Destruction of both systems was the current goal of the deceased King's three brothers. Captain Lee, the rightful heir to the throne, was raised in SOL, and his betrothed, Lady Michelle, was raised on Capra. An attempt had been made on her life, and she had barely escaped and found herself plunged into confusion on a starship headed off Capra to another star system, SOL. Discovering she was selected to be the bride of a future king of something called the Galactic Kingdom. Now hunted and was on the run to see if her future betrothed was still alive. Lee was on Earth in command of a destroyer in an Earth war. He was entrenched in a battle with a portion of the world seeking death for all non-believers. He had been raised by an American family when those who brought him to Earth died from their accident landing on Earth. The Galactic Kingdom guardian team sent with the future king had lost track of Lee's location and had been out of contact with the assigned parental figures. Three uncles from the Galactic Kingdom sent fleets to SOL to locate and kill Lee. Failing to find the rightful future king, the destruction of all lives on Earth was the only option. Three fleets staggered from actual departure time would allow a short period between subsequent attacks to be ready for the next. That could only happen if a star system with no space-faring technology could resist and destroy three significantly greater technical prowess fleets. A miracle of good fortune allowed a Capra contingency of starships to arrive, whose numbers had been increased when Captain Lorans' force joined with hers. Three fleets had independently arrived and attacked SOL, and each had been narrowly defeated. The final with the help of Queen Suzzane from the Galactic Kingdom. She had lost her husband, King Richard, to her three brothers-in-law, and she was determined not to lose her son. Once the battles had ended, Earth was still a survivor, and the future king was located. It was time to plan for the future and let Lady Michelle and the future king, Lee, get acquainted. Lady Michelle and future king Lee could only see an end to the war, and their lives had been altered permanently. Even amidst the turmoil, a connection had begun to form. King Lee could only expect a betrothed that stood firm, even fearless. She would be a woman to reckon with.
