Mad Kings of Aerides

Vicious madness drives the foremost enemy of Avinon to attempt to assemble a million-man army, to crush Avinon, and subjugate its Royal Family in this thrilling continuation of the Avinon Chronicles.

There has been a year of peace and relaxed quiet in the city-state of Avinon, the principal city of planet Aerides. But, Princess Sefina knows that her wicked brother, Vayus Audan, is out there and up to no good. Sefina killed him, put her sword through his black heart, so how can he be a threat? Logic would dictate that he cannot, but she saw him, saw him piloting a Frigate airship just months after she ended his obscene life, and since then, he has haunted her dreams.

Avinon is militarily strong and can defend against any other city on Aerides. But what if enough smaller cities with armies could be brought together to combine their forces to attack Avinon and put a new king on the throne of southern Aerides. Things go from serious to weird when Tal Madj, the insane ex-king of Tanos, disappears from his secure cell in the pits of Avinon. Shortly thereafter, a huge explosion destroys the Royal palace and kills the king of Avinon, gentle old Mordus Mereda, Crown Princess Adria Mereda's father, and Aron's grandfather.

Prince Aron and Princess Sefina pull together their team of warriors and tactical minds to parse the facts and form a plan to find out and destroy whoever did this heinous thing. Thus begins a tactical chess game played with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and immense aerial battleships over the vast expanse of Aerides's trackless deserts. This is not a fight for territory or gold, but the very existence of Avinon and the fate of all Aerides.
