Del was a rock singer. He was also the renegade son of the Ruby
Dynasty, which made his career choice less than respectable, and gave
him more to worry about than getting gigs and not getting cheated by
recording companies, club owners, or his agent. For one thing, the
Ruby Dynasty ruled the Skolian Imperialate, an interstellar Empire,
which had recently had a war with another empire, the Eubian Concord.
For another, Del was singing on Earth, which was part of a third
interstellar civilization, and one which had an uneasy relationship
with the Imperialate. Del undeniably had talent, and was rapidly
rising from an unknown fringe artist to stardom. But, with his life
entangled in the politics of three interstellar civilizations,
whether he wanted that or not, talent might not be enough. And that
factor might have much more effect than his music on the lives of
trillions of people on the thousands of inhabited worlds across the
galaxy.
