Publisher's Synopsis
You are already a prince. The odds are a hundred and forty-nine to 1 that you will be chosen as crown prince-the future ruler of an empire that stretches across the known universe. Each contestant must perform an assigned task to demonstrate his worthiness, but is that the only factor that counts? Could something extra move the odds your way, some coercion, some bribe, some secret plan? Each prince chooses his own way.
Regnar puts all his hopes on succeeding at his task. Will that be enough?
