Firebird by Kathy Tyers

Lady Firebird was born to the royal family of Netaia. Because of her birthplace in the family, however, her life is expendable. Honorable suicide is the highest calling she could hope to attain. When she is chosen to lead an attack on the neighboring planet of Veroh her death is expected. Instead she is taken prisoner during the battle and is held by the enemy. With her own people seeking her sacrifice, Firebird must choose between two worlds before she can carve out her new destiny. This is the story of Lady Firebird's personal battle and its eternal consequences, not only for herself but for everyone around her, and especially the man who loves her.

Kathy Tyers' works include the Firebird series (Firebird, Fusion Fire, Crown of Fire, and Daystar) as well as stand-alone science fiction (Shivering World, Crystal Witness, and One Mind's Eye). She's also authored several original Star Wars novels, including The Truce at Bakura, a New York Times bestseller novel. She is a resident of southwestern Montana.
