Shadows of Empire

A secret interstellar war. A terrifying threat. One young man holds the fate of an empire.

Wil Sietinen is driven by duty. Second in line to a powerful family dynasty, the young telekinetic would rather be designing starships than employing his formidable abilities as a military leader and strategist. But after he’s kidnapped by an aggressive alien race, the peace-minded noble discovers they’ve been covertly warring for centuries.

Learning he’s been bred through generations of selective pairing to be the one to end the conflict, Wil discovers the dark intentions for his extraordinary gifts. His mission calls for genocide, and he faces an impossible choice with the fate of his civilization hanging by a thread.

Caught in a moral dilemma amidst an insidious conspiracy, can Wil secure his galactic empire's survival?
