Something to think about besides the travesty taking place in DC. Thanks.

Never heard of this one, but if you click on my name I discuss science fiction “classics you should read”.

Well that book does not sound so hot as SciFi goes

If you want to read the last great American writer, look no further than Gene Wolf’s “Book of the New Sun”, “Litany of the Long Sun”, “The Book of the Short Sun”, and “The Urth of the New Sun”

Hard Scifi would be the Xeelee series by Stephen Baxter.

Might not be it, but sounds like “Apocalypse Troll” by David Weber. If it isn’t you should check it out.

Is the catalogue of the library online? Try searching ‘sci-fi’ and limit the search to books. Many libraries now even have pictures of the cover which should help, I imagine. Good luck, I know it’s frustrating to not be able to recall something like that.

[...] and saves a woman who proves to be the empress of an interstellar empire. Of course, they fall in love and he joins her in space and has to try to protest protect her as a revolution breaks out.

Have you tried the "Young Adults" dept. of your local library?

You may want to start your research with the movie Men In Black II to determine the roots of the back story of K presented in the script. to find your novel.

Paper or Plastic? by Mackey Chandler? It is a similar story to that. He also does the April Series which is well done but is mostly on Kindle.

The plot description is similar to a classic science fiction novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, A Princess of Mars.

Besides a rip off of Burroughs perhaps search for pulp science fiction. That’s what your describing
