Publisher's Note: We Few is not divided into separate chapters, but simply is separated into the prologue and main text. "Chapter 1" is the only chapter.

THE HARD WAY

Roger Ramius Sergei Alexander Chiang McClintock hasn't done anything the easy way.

The spoiled playboy prince grew up the hard way on the planet Marduk. Watching ninety percent of your bodyguards — bodyguards who have become friends, closer to you than your own brothers and sisters — die to keep you alive will do that. And it tends to make you dangerous . . . perhaps in too many ways.

Now he's coming home, but home isn't what it was when he left. Traitors have murdered his brother and sister, his nieces and nephews. His mother, the Empress, is still alive, but in the hands of Roger's own biological father, who controls her through drugs and physical and psychological torture. A new heir to the Throne has been conceived, and once the child is born his mother will no longer be necessary to the traitors' plans. Home Fleet, the largest and most powerful of the Empire's fleets is under the traitors' control, and no one in a position of power on Old Earth has the means — or the will — to do anything about it.

And, just to make things perfect, the Empire has been told that the real traitor is Prince Roger Ramius Sergei Alexander Chiang McClintock.

With the twelve survivors of Bravo Company of the Empress' Own, a few hundred three-meter tall Mardukans, his one-time tutor and present chief of staff, an elephant-sized flarta pack beast, his faithful pet Dogzard, and the ghost of his greatest ancestor, Prince Roger must somehow retake the Empire from the men who control it . . . before his new brother is born and his mother dies.

It's an impossible task, but Prince Roger knows all about impossible tasks, and the surviving Bronze Barbarians and the Mardukans of the Basik's Own believe he can do it. They're prepared to storm the gates of Hell itself at his heels in order to retake the Empire.

But after they do, can they save it from Prince Roger, as well

    After reading the first 3 books, this one was a bit of a dissapointment. The setup of the masterplan in the book was fine, the way it worked out would have been as well, if there was a 5th book coming, and by that i mean no prequel. (hate that word)

    The editing was atrocious, not sure if there was a point to it, or if they refused to allow any editing at all. But there are no chapters, no breaks, nothing to indicate a shift in scene. If it weren't for punctuation this book would be the longest senstence ever.

    Ringo does it again, this is a great read! Have to admit, I like happy endings so I was upset after the last book cause I couldn't see Nimashet changing her mind but Ringo pulled if off. Just hope this isn't the end of the series.

    I have read all four of the books in this series in the past week. I gave the first three books 5 stars but this book was a disappointment.

    I didn't like all the quotes or paraphrasing of 20th century movies or songs. Come on Quigly Down Under?!? John Denver?!? Paul Simon?!? Dark Lord of the Sixth?!? Dark Helmut?!? Filler to pad the word count? It wasn't funny and it felt forced.

    It felt like they had to do this book and they were bored with the story. There are no chapters but there are also no breaks between scenes. sometimes there are three stars at the end of a scene but often there was no break at all and I had to stop and start over when I found out the scene had changed and the ones speaking were different characters. Three periods, an extra enter or two would have killed you?

    The other three books were action most of the time. This had a lot of talking and talking and talking.

    The space battles were poorly written. Characters were introduced so they could die.
