Chris RobersonIt is the age of the Celestial Empire, and the epic civilisations of Imperial China and Mexica have taken their ancient war into space. A disgraced Chinese naval captain and a commando who knows secrets he should never have learned, are picked to lead a suicide mission. They must pilot a salvaged Mexica spacecraft to Xolotl, the asteroid stronghold of their enemies, armed with enough explosive to reduce the Mexica base to dust. But when they arrive to find dozens of Chinese prisoners destined to be used as human sacrifices, their suicide mission suddenly turns into a rescue operation.
The Dragon’s Nine Sons marks the start of the epic Celestial Empire sequence, one of the most original and exciting series in modern science fiction.
