Lunacy
A Biblical Fiction Novel, Book Two of The Lambswool Chronicles
It comes about suddenly. In secret. David neither anticipates nor requests it. Yet the prophet Samuel anoints him as the next king of Israel. It’s no wonder. The apparent heir pursues the will of YHWH with his whole heart, whether caring for his father’s sheep, ministering to his liege through music, or serving as a royal armor bearer. All the while, his eldest brother Eliab wants nothing more than to eliminate David altogether, reasoning the Israelites would be the better for it.
As a scribe, Eliab enjoys direct access to the king. He utilizes his cunning nature to manipulate Saul, reasoning he could be rid of David through his monarch’s declarations while keeping his own hands clean. The king orders David into seemingly impossible missions, all designed to put an end to the young man’s life.
When Saul’s lunacy drives David into hiding, the young man must forge into unknown territories. Leading an unlikely band of outcasts whose numbers grow by the day, David must continually find new places of refuge. His own bout of lunacy drives him beyond Israel’s border to the land of the enemy, where he offers his men as mercenaries to Achish, king of Gath.
Safe from Saul for the time being, the heir intended soon realizes his problems are only beginning. Will YHWH withdraw His favor if David fights against his own people, as Achish bids? Will his men turn on him when he needs them most? Will Eliab succeed in bringing his foe down?
From an award-winning, best-selling author with her second in the series comes the thrilling tale of uncertainty, treachery, and ultimate redemption.

Not your typical, syrupy faith novel. It’s raw and relatable and romantic. Great biblical fiction read.
