The Prince Awakens (The Prince of Britannia Saga Book 1)
An empire forged in war. A prince forged in duty. A galaxy that won’t survive without him.
From lone officer to Emperor, Hazard King rises through betrayal, alien war, and impossible command decisions—where every victory costs lives, and every failure risks humanity itself.
If you like your science fiction grounded, tactical, and real—this is your next series.
Railguns. Fleet maneuvers. Marine drops.
No hand-waving. No shortcuts.
Hazard King was never meant to rule.
He was the spare.
The officer.
The one who did his duty and stayed out of politics.
Until betrayal forced his hand.
Until war demanded more.
Until humanity needed someone who wouldn’t quit.
This isn’t a story about power.
It’s about responsibility.
Sacrifice.
And what it costs to protect everyone else.
⚔️ Realistic space combat
⚔️ Tactical decisions with real consequences
⚔️ A hero shaped by duty—not destiny
