Heir to the Dragon, Vol. 1: Blood of Kerensky --Michael A. Stackpole

Before anyone knew what was happening, these mysterious invaders had overrun numerous worlds, subjugating their populations and utterly destroying their defenders. Who are they? Where did they come from? What do they want?

They are the Clans. Descendants of a long-vanished General and his loyal troops, they are the lost cousins of the Inner Sphere. Genetically bred to be better warriors, armed with vastly superior technology, and driven by a desire to reclaim what was once theirs, the Clans seem unstoppable.

Victor Steiner-Davion is heir to the thrones of two of the most powerful interstellar empires, joined in the greatest alliance of the last 300 years.

Kai Allard-Liao is quite possibly the best MechWarrior the Inner Sphere has ever seen, with an inferiority complex to match his impressive skill.

Phelan Kell: Cousin to the ruling Steiner-Davion family. Son of a famous mercenary. Prisoner of the Clans.

Shin Yodama is a criminal, a member of the lowest rung of Draconis Combine society.

These four young men hold the fate of the Inner Sphere in their hands. Through hardship and heartbreak, they must learn the secrets of the Clan invasion and try to stop it before the children of Kerensky bring ruin to all.

Blood Legacy, Vol. 2: Blood of Kerensky --Michael A. Stackpole

Outreach, January 3051

Although the brave actions of an Inner Sphere warrior have halted the Clan invasion for now, it is only a matter of time before they return. Jaime Wolf, commander of Wolf's Dragoons, has inside knowledge of the Clans and intends to pass that knowledge on to the rulers of the Inner Sphere... if they let him.

The Clan Homeworlds

Phelan Kell has been adopted as a warrior of Clan Wolf and trains for the inevitable resumption of the invasion. Can he become a true Clanner while remaining faithful to his friends and family in the Inner Sphere? And how does the notorious Natasha Kerensky fit into Khan Ulric's plans?

The Invasion Continues

The Clans have returned to resume their invasion and one world becomes the target for a massive assault. Hanse Davion and Theodore Kurita must put aside their differences long enough to save Luthien from the might of the Smoke Jaguars and the Nova Cats. But will it be too little, too late?

Blood Legacy is the second volume in the Blood of Kerensky trilogy.

Lost Destiny, Vol. 3: Blood of Kerensky --Michael A. Stackpole

The end of the Clan invasion is near, but will it be a victory or a defeat for the Inner Sphere?

The Federated Commonwealth has just suffered a defeat on the planet Alyina. Although Prince Victor Steiner-Davion, heir to the giant FedCom, was evacuated safely, he had to leave behind his closest friend, Kai Allard-Liao. Thought dead by his friends and trapped behind the lines on a world controlled by Clan Jade Falcon, Kai must overcome his own insecurities and family history to save not only himself but also the woman he cares most about in the universe.

Fresh from victory on their capital planet of Luthien, the forces of the Draconis Combine are about to suffer a grievous blow, as the young grandson of their leader, Hohiro Kurita, goes missing on the world of Teniente, which has just been overrun by Clan Nova Cat. With no troops to spare, how will Hohiro's father, Gunji-no-Kanrei Theodore Kurita rescue his son and the future of the Combine?

And behind it all lurks ComStar, the pseudo-mystical organization that controls interstellar communications. Throughout the Clan invasion, ComStar has worked hand-in-hand with the invaders, helping to administer conquered worlds with a minimum of fuss. But now they know that the ultimate target of the invasion is Terra, homeworld of humanity, capital of the ancient Star League, and sacred possession of ComStar itself. Precentor-Martial Anastasius Focht hatches a desperate plan to save the Inner Sphere, but will his efforts be undermined by his own leaders?

Lost Destiny is the final volume in the Blood of Kerensky trilogy.
