<p>What will you do if you inherit a powerful alien technology?</p> <p>When rumors of an alien ship spread online, Anton "Tony" Segerstrom thinks it is all a prank…until it appears above his college campus. At that moment, Tony is selected to inherit the aliens' Forerunner technology. The only catch: Pledge allegiance to Earth's secret benefactors and join them against a more sinister threat beyond the stars. Refuse, and humanity will face the galactic war alone and defenseless.</p> <p>The galaxy is a grueling and deadly place, and to stay alive, Tony must inherit a dangerous throne and build a legacy to protect his home and everyone he loves.</p> <p>Set in present-day Earth, Imperium Rising is an empire-building, SciFi Adventure told in first-person POV (there are some chapters--the interludes--written in the 3rd-person from other people's POV). This is not isekai or litRPG.</p> <p>What to expect: Our MC becomes an emperor/representative of Earth and must build his nation from the ground up, fighting (and managing) other factions/governments from within Earth and across the galaxy. There's political intrigue, action set-pieces, adventures, space exploration, and drama.</p> <p>Fair Warning: The male MC is gay. I wanted to write a male lead who is queer in a big Space Opera adventure. I notice there aren't a lot of MCs like that, so enjoy!</p> <p>Update Schedule: Tuesdays & Fridays (2.5-3k/chapter). Thank you for reading!</p> <p>[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - updates will be Mondays to Fridays until May 5th (end of Writathon)</p>
