Mickey Stone has been a musician for over 50 years, bringing that same creative passion to storytelling.
His debut novel, HAND OF BELENOS, earned a "GET IT" review from Kirkus Reviews, who praised Stone for creating "an admirable character who succeeds despite his gift" in "an intriguing story that questions what makes for a successful life."
HAND OF BELENOS is Book 1 in THE VENERATED LEGACY series—a multi-generational saga spanning centuries from the Scottish Highlands to 1950s America. Stone weaves Celtic mythology, family legacy, and the cost of miracles into a story about very real people dealing with real situations while trying to balance a power carried by someone who never asked for it.
Book 2, STONE OF ALISANOS (Ethan's story), releases December 2026.
Book 3, DANU OF TALAMH (Dugald's origin), follows in 2027.
Perfect for readers who loved THE NIGHT CIRCUS, OUTLANDER, THE SONG OF ACHILLES, and THE GREEN MILE.
