A fight behind enemy lines turns friends to foes.
The USS Intrepid set out to explore neighboring star systems, but the moment it passes into interstellar space, an enemy awaited, and a massacre ensued. Cut off from Earth, the few survivors can only hope their warning reached the planet in time.
One by one, the scientists and soldiers find themselves subjects to the alien's experiments. None expect to live - especially Kat. Behind enemy lines with no hope of aid, they have few choices, but when the emperor shows his hand, revealing his intent to keep one alive as a trophy of his conquest, their last move may be to determine who survives amongst themselves.
The revelation that the emperor's trophy is key to his species' revival cements Kat's determination to ensure the one who lives will mean the empire's doom. Kat aims to clear the ranks - whether by riling their captors or cutting down her own - she'll set herself on fire if it means the empire burns.
CONQUEST RISING is a dark military science fiction horror with a diverse cast, a ruthless villain, and henchmen that would make Dr. Moreau's Island look tame.
