This novella follows the adventures of K’Khosro, a prince born in exile from parents whose nations were at war. Our young prince lives a charmed life with extraordinary events allowing him to survive numerous dangers, return to his father’s homeland, and rise to become Shah of Iran. His entourage says that he has been gifted a divine blessing and is fated to rule the kingdom. He grapples with the conflict of living a pre-destined life or exercising free will. This is not a philosophical question that can be resolved - especially if one’s sense of duty shapes choices that are compatible with the conditions of keeping the divine gift on-side.Hushang Dowlatabadi is a retired physician and active author with an enduring interest in human and animal behaviour.
