0Shares When her uncle, the emperor dies, Alyssa Farshot enters a deadly competition against her childhood friends: the heirs of the galaxy’s most powerful (and most dangerous) families. She’s experienced, capable, and favored to win. She just doesn’t want to. HarperTeen While the whole escape-from-impending-queendom arc is massively overdone in YA canon, Crownchasers turns the trope on its head. For one, it’s not about running away from a betrothal. She just wants to narrowly avoid death while planet-hopping with her ship and her best friend Hell Monkey, and that would be very difficult to do with the responsibility of the empire on her head. Secondly, she’s thrust into a competition to earn the crown rather than leaving her empire to flounder in her absence, which I’d consider more evidence of her conscientious nature.
