The Succession Duology

A sweeping space opera of immortal god-emperors and relentless cybernetic foes from acclaimed author Scott Westerfeld.

This discounted ebundle of the Succession Duology includes: The Risen Empire and The Killing of Worlds.

In a galaxy where the immortal Emperor and his sister the Child Empress have reigned for sixteen hundred years as living gods, the fate of the empire rests in the hands of two unlikely heroes: Captain Laurent Zai, a brilliant tactician, and his pacifist lover Senator Nara Oxham. Separated by lightyears, they must face the threat of the Rix, machine-augmented humans who long for the cybernetic rule of a vast AI.

In The Risen Empire, Zai and Oxham hold the key to victory as a war erupts between the Emperor and the fanatical Rix. But in The Killing of Worlds, the stakes rise even higher as Zai embarks on a suicide mission to stop the next Rix invasion with a single ship, while Oxham navigates a deadly political fencing match with the Emperor himself.

Westerfeld weaves a gripping tale of galactic intrigue, pulse-pounding space battles, and the indomitable human spirit that will keep you turning pages late into the night. Don't miss this epic New York Times bestselling military science fiction adventure.
