The Blood of Houses

Game of Thrones with Lightsabers
A secret is trivial for one, adequate for two, and fatal for three.

There's power in blood. Such is the legacy of House Vega, a Sovereign fiefdom standing on the brink against General Basil Zeren of Taras. There, Jase Vega of Attica declares neutrality in his family's war, in vein and virtue. A militant pacifist, he ventures beyond the neon city to train his clandestine daughter, Seva, how to wield their inherited powers: the roaring tides of Hydrokinesis and the collateral-inducing damage of Super Strength. Far across the Royal Strait, along the secular shores of Siteia, lie devote conjurers and more-an innate power severed from the dynastic kings during the generation-long uprising, yet emerging with grievous consequences and divine authority not seen in centuries.

But a more civil disturbance rises to the east, where Shoshana Vega, the General of War, has decreed an ultimatum for her heretic brother: join the destructive conflict or face execution for treason. Now, Basil is charging west to Attica, bringing his daughter, the apostatized but fierce Rome, her daughter, the infamous, immeasurable acolyte Seva, and the indomitable genetic powers of House Zeren-the first an inferno like Dragon's breath, the second a psionic enhancement of hearing. All are colliding in Attica, unaware of a fifteen-year mystery condemning Seva's birthright that will link the two feuding houses in blood forever.
Meanwhile, in the City of Sin, Chaya, Czar of House Petra, which has never fought a war on Siren soil, prepares the Sovereign Summit of every nation on Madish-whose misanthropic ideologies will clash over proper course of action: defend their world from global annihilation, together.
The Blood of Houses Volume II will be releasing in 2024. This novel features supernatural abilities, battle sequences, and political intrigue.
