Six blade hits. One battle distinction. No birth certificate. Guy Erma has one ambition: to escape the fashion house that raised him and join the Dome Militant, London's legendary military brigade. When Scavengii raiders attack, Guy's training exercise becomes a real battle. His skill with a blade saves lives and brings him to the attention of a military recruiter. At last, everything he has fought for is within reach. But Guy cannot enlist.
Without a birth certificate, he cannot prove who he is. Officially, he may not even exist. He knows what he wants to become. First, he must discover who he is. For readers of Orson Scott Card's *Ender's Game*, Brandon Sanderson's *Skyward* and Lois McMaster Bujold's Vorkosigan Saga, *Orphan of Empire* is a fast-moving military space opera about identity, ambition, honour and belonging. A standalone gateway to S. A. Melia's acclaimed Dodecahedral series. Previous novels Born of Empire and Heirs of Empire are Gold Medal winners at the 2025 Global Books Awards, with five-star recognition from Readers' Favorite, Literary Titan, The Book Review Directory and Indie Book Review. S. A. Melia was named YA Author at the 2026 Farnham Literary Festival.
