Duchess of Terra: Book Two in the Duchy of Terra (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781988035468)

When Terra knelt to an alien Imperium

They guaranteed our safety and our future

But now their enemies are coming for us

To preserve humanity's survival and freedom in a hostile galaxy, Annette Bond tied her world to the A Tol Imperium, taking on the mantle of Duchess of Terra to rule humanity in the Imperium's name.

The A Tol have provided technology, ships, and money to uplift the new Duchy of Terra, but those gifts come with strings attached. The Imperium has their own plan for Terra--but Bond has tricks of her own.

With enough time, she can build Earth a place in the galaxy. But as Bond's many enemies gather their forces, the clouds of war threaten not only the recovering Terra but the entire Imperium.
