Children of Hope

"The seventh novel in the Seafort Saga by David Feintuch, recipient of the prestigious John W. Campbell Award, Children of Hope continues the story of a man bound to his duty and wracked by guilt for all that his duty demands of him. Captain Nicholas Seafort survived alien wars, planetary rebellions, and ecological chaos on Earth, but now something much more ordinary might finally cost him his life...vengeance. Derek Carr was Stadholder of the colonial planet Hope Nation when Captain Nicholas Seafort ordered him to take command of the UN starship Galactic, a mission that ultimately cost Derek his life. It was a tragedy that forever changed the political landscape of Hope Nation and left young Randy Carr fatherless and desperate for revenge. Now a young man bucking against authority, Randy rebels against Hope Nation's oppressive Church-State and draws the wrath of a powerful and malicious clergy. As he seeks refuge from those who would make an example of him, he sustains himself with dreams of repaying Captain Seafort for the death of his famous father. When the opportunity presents itself, he leaves the UN's most decorated hero and legendary leader fighting for his life?an action that sparks the most explosive trial in starship history. For Randy Carr, it will be more than a fight for justice. Because what began in the name of duty could suddenly end with a death sentence. "

Chapter One

UNS Paragon beckoned at the end of the corridor, its gaping lock mated to that of Orbit Station.

The Stadholder of the Commonweal of Hope Nation paused at the hatchway. He gave me a fierce hug, same as always. "Take care, son. Be good and I'll bring you home an elephant."

I broke into a silly grin. Even at nine, I knew it was impossible. Behind me, Mom laughed softly.

The smile faded from Derek Carr's eyes. "You'll be ... Lord help us, almost eleven when I'm home." His eyes glistened. "Nearly grown."

I swallowed, made a manful effort so he'd be proud. "Bye, Dad." I stood tall.

"Always remember I love you, son."

In another realm, a voice said, "Randy?" Insistent fingers prodded at my forearm. "They'll be leaving soon."

"Go 'way." I buried my head in the pillow, desperate to lose myself again in my dream.

"The ceremony won't wait—"

I launched myself flailing from my bed.
