Produktbeschreibung
Two very different civilizations-one bathed in bright sunlight and the other veiled in shadow. Bad decisions, declining resources, and a king on the brink of madness force Prince Varo Kutchif, third son of the royal family and a starship captain, to attempt the impossible: barter for Black Phospolrock, an energy source the mysterious Helkan Kingdom has in abundance. Varo opens a line of communication with Adlar, an intriguing Helkan who seems to reciprocate Varo's interest. He hopes so, because if negotiations collapse, Varo has orders to attack. The Helkans preside over a planet shrouded in perpetual darkness. Several species have tried to exploit its natural resources through trade with them, but all have failed. Adlar Mondur is the older brother to the Helkan ruler. An assassin of the highest order, he'll do anything to protect his king and his people-including tracking down the Yesri prince who crash-lands on their planet, leaving an ugly scar across its untouched beauty. Thus begins a journey where two men from disparate civilizations grow from enemies to lovers.
Autorenporträt
M.A. Church is a true Southern belle who spent many years in the elementary education sector. Now she spends her days lost in fantasy worlds, arguing with hardheaded aliens on far-off planets, herding her numerous shifters, or trying to tempt her country boys away from their fishing poles. It's a full-time job, but hey, someone's gotta do it! When not writing, she's exploring the latest M/M novel to hit the market, watching her beloved Steelers, or watching HGTV. That's if she's not on the back porch tending to the demanding wildlife around the pond in the backyard. The ducks are very outspoken. She's married to her high school sweetheart, and they have two children. She is a member of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.
