About the Book
THE ARCHON-DESIGNATE UNDER SIEGE!
Melissa Steiner, heir-apparent of the Lyran Commonwealth, has been hijacked aboard her interstellar JumpShip, just when her secret betrothal to Prince Hanse Davion of the Federated Suns would cement the most powerful alliance in the Inner Sphere.
Meanwhile, two half-brothers, Justin and Daniel Allard, find themselves fighting on opposite sides of the Inner Sphere's endless battles. Stripped of his rank, honor, and even name, Justin Xiang Allard is exiled to Solaris VII, and there wages war against Hanse Davion's surrogates in the gladiatorial arenas. His brother, Daniel, a lance commander in the dreaded Kell Hounds mercenary battalion, uncovers the plot against Melissa Steiner and undertakes to ensure her safety – and along with it, the safety of the Inner Sphere.
Both men face fierce fights, but in the Inner Sphere, where nobles have schemed for centuries to win ultimate power, those who interfere with the Successor Lords are sometimes called heroes, and sometimes called victims.
Will the beautiful Melissa be rescued? Will Justin Xiang redeem himself? Find out in... WARRIOR: EN GARDE!
