Fortunate Son

by Melinda Mitchell

Fortunate Son is a retelling of the David story, part of the Stardust and Ashes series of biblical retellings set in the Euphrates Spiral Galaxy.

Love will save them. But their love will destroy the kingdom. 

Armas dreams of life beyond the family farm but doesn’t aspire to be the king. Kyla longs to fight for her kingdom but is sidelined by her father and must forge her own path. Jon is in line for the throne but has fallen for the one person he can’t have. 

“Fortunate Son made me want to read the Bible again!"

-LaShawn Wanak, short fiction author & editor of GigaNotoSaurus Magazine

"A familiar (Biblical, even) story given fresh life and meaning with a SFnal twist."

-Laura Anne Gilman, author of the Huntsmen series

“How do you improve the most Shakespearian part of the Bible? Mech suits and starfighters!”

-Spencer Ellsworth, author of A Red Peace

Melinda Mitchell’s Stardust And Ashes series was born out of a late night/early morning D&D session during her time in seminary. She likes to think the greatest truths are in the stories we tell. Learn more about her at www.melindamitchell.com
