Dorothy (D.C. Fontana) and Lynn Barker
Author Lynn Barker (Twilight Zone, Deep Space Nine, Space Academy) introduces her captivating novel Futurus Rex and the remarkable story behind its creation. More than an Arthurian reawakening—it’s a powerful collaboration with the legendary D.C. Fontana, one of Star Trek’s most influential writers, and represents some of Dorothy’s final published work.
Futurus Rex: Where Legend Meets Tomorrow
Born from artist Bud Lewis’s original concept and adapted from a screenplay Lynn and Dorothy (D.C. Fontana) wrote together, Futurus Rex presents Arthur’s awakening into a world both familiar and alien. The story takes place in a post-apocalyptic Britain where broken starships circle a damaged moon, and techno-wizards wield devices that seem like magic to the medieval-style survivors below. Arthur represents the battle leader the people need in their rebellion against magical tyranny.
