Dragon Queen of Xylos: A Science Fantasy Adventure of Dragons, Alien Worlds, Royal Intrigue, and Dangerous Loyalty

They returned to Xylos looking for a weapon. What they found was a queen.

Prince Alexander Strong barely survived his first expedition to Xylos. Fourteen members of the mission did not.

Now his father's throne is threatened, powerful military leaders are circling the monarchy, and Alexander is ordered back to the deadly alien world to recover rare minerals that could shift the balance of power on Triton III.

At his side is Anna Wilde—the battle-hardened mercenary who has already saved his life and has no intention of letting royal politics, hostile soldiers, or alien predators change that.

But reaching Xylos may prove just as dangerous as surviving it.

A mysterious bounty has been placed on Anna. A black-ops warship follows their trail. An abandoned prospector's survey points toward a cave system marked with one terrifying warning:

NESTS BELOW.

Deep beneath Xylos, Alexander and Anna discover glowing crystals, ancient structures, strange creatures, and evidence of an intelligence far older and more powerful than anything humanity expected to find.

Then the crystals begin calling to something in the darkness between the stars.

Something enormous answers.

And when the legendary Dragon Queen Kaelen finally appears, Alexander and Anna learn that the treasure they carried away from Xylos was never theirs to take.

Now their survival depends on understanding a species capable of crossing space, manipulating energy, and claiming humans as easily as humans once claimed unexplored worlds.

Meanwhile, the bond between Alexander and Anna is becoming harder to dismiss—and increasingly dangerous for a prince whose kingdom may be waiting for him to return.

Dragon Queen of Xylos is Book Two of the Dragon's Breath and Starlight Series, a fast-moving science-fantasy adventure filled with dragons, alien planets, ancient mysteries, royal conspiracies, dangerous expeditions, and two people discovering that loyalty can become something much more powerful.
