A New Cinema Sound Audiobook — In Development

(A stand alone story)

Before Queen Aliyah departs the New Home World on her voyage to Earth, she makes a secret decision that could alter the fate of the Empire. Queen Aliyah chooses Mirena to succeed her on the Egyptian New Home World.  

Born into poverty and raised far from marble halls, Mirena, now a young adult, is quietly appointed as the future Princess — and one day, Queen. Overnight, she and her family are thrust into a world of ceremony, surveillance, and political calculation. But privilege does not bring peace. Her parents struggle with the new life they never wanted, pressuring Mirena to reshape the Empire into something more just… more equal.

Caught between loyalty to her blood and loyalty to the throne, Mirena must learn to rule worlds that once ignored her existence. And shaping her in secret is something even more dangerous.

An unauthorized and unlawful clone of Aliyah — left behind by Queen Aliyah herself  — Aliyah's clone becomes Mirena’s hidden mentor. A reflection of the Queen, but unrestrained. Sharper. Harder. Less forgiving.

If discovered, the truth could shatter the legitimacy of the crown.

As tensions rise across the Egyptian worlds, Mirena begins to understand the cost of elevation:

Power isolates. Power demands. Power destroys the unprepared.

A sovereign is not born.

A sovereign survives.
