Throne Without Mercy: The Rise of Catherine the Great
In the icy shadow of Europe’s crowned kingdoms, one empire waited to be shaped—Russia, vast and fractured, hungry for order and fire. And in the heart of its transformation stood a girl, not born to rule, not destined by blood, but forged by ambition, intellect, and unrelenting will.
Sophie of Anhalt-Zerbst, a minor German princess, is summoned to a foreign court, renamed Catherine, and thrust into a world of power games, court intrigue, and ruthless ambition. Betrothed to a volatile heir, bound by duty, and surrounded by betrayal, she learns to smile like an empress long before she wears the crown.
This is not just the tale of a girl who became an empress.
This is the story of a woman who took the throne—and never let it go.
A woman who shattered conventions, rewrote destiny, and ruled without mercy.
In a world where queens are pawns and kings fall to weakness, Catherine rises.
