Download The Ruby Dice: A Novel of the Skolian Empire AudioBook Free
Two men, two empires. Jaibriol ruled the Eubian Concord: over two trillion people across greater than a thousand worlds and habitats. Kelric ruled the Skolian Imperialate. War had come before—ten years ago, Jaibriol had lost his parents in the final battle of the Radiance War between your Concord and the Imperialate—and it might come again, devastating vast swathes of the galaxy. Neither Jaibriol nor Kelric wanted war, but neither was complete master of his realm. And each hid a secret that, if revealed, might be his downfall. Jaibriol was a secret psion, with telepathic abilities, and to be considered a psion in the Eubian Concord was to be a contemptible slave, eventually to be tortured for the pleasure of the slave’s owner. Kelric, years ago, had disappeared for almost two decades. He previously been a prisoner and slave on earth Coban, part of neither empire, until he previously managed to escape. If the Skolian Imperialate knew of his captivity, there would be demands for vengeance, ravaging Coban—and killing the wife and children Kelric had left out when he escaped. Neither man knew how a lot longer he could keep his secret—nor how a lot longer they could restrain the threat of a war that could incinerate a huge selection of inhabited worlds.
