Three stories set in worlds similar to ours but each different in very important ways. In the first, coming of age is difficult for everyone but having the future of the Kingdom of America weigh on his shoulders makes Noble Washington particularly tense. As the manifestation of his "Second Form" - a physical symbol of his power - looms on his twentieth birthday, Noble and his constant companion, Rujula, find themselves questioning what has gone unchallenged since the dawn of time: Is magic the only thing that makes a king? On another Earth, magic has torn the world apart, launching countries into the Third Great War. Alex, younger sister to the Queen and an engineer in a Battle Golem Engineering Lab, is on the brink of new magitech solution that could end a war that's been raging for most of her life. But as the Crown Princess it's up to her to decide where her true loyalties lie, with the elite or with the common good, with power or with magic. Lastly, in world most separate from ours, humans have evolved into three sexes: the dominate Alphas, the middle-ground Betas, the oft-controlled Omegas. When gang-leader and alpha Carlyn meets rebellious omega Johann sparks fly immediately. Carlyn thinks there's no way the omega can change him, but the world around them is coming to a tipping point and Carlyn can't hold onto his way of life forever.
