The Admiral's Choice (Laim-Saga #1)

A fatal mistake. A diabolical plot. And a young woman caught in the middle, forced to fight a fierce battle for survival. Welcome to the world of the gods!
Alisia, a young historian, plans to live a normal life: fall in love, marry her prince, maybe have kids someday. But the gods have other plans.
Interstellar slave traders kidnap Alisia and her sister and sell them to the Admiral of the Vudari, an alien empire which rules vast portions of the galaxy. Trapped on his spaceship, Alisia is to become a pawn in his cosmic subterfuge. In order for the Admiral’s plot to succeed, Alisia must die—but she won’t go down without a fight. In her desperation, she discovers unexpected powers and surprising allies. But will that be enough to escape the Admiral’s clutches? Even if Alisia is the chosen one of the gods?
A thrilling beginning to this fascinating and sweeping space opera about the destiny of the gods.
