Only one can save them. The Rebellion has fallen. The door to the Outside has been opened. And the one who opened it--Jurien Arminius--is now the most powerful man in Darcentaria. But everything they have known is about to change forever. Separated by Arminius but fighting to get back to each other, El and Torsten encounter unlikely allies that reveal stunning truths about each other, the Outside, and the very beginnings of Darcentaria itself. A romantic historical fantasy transformation of the epic Ben-Hur , The Darcentaria Duology is a fast-paced, sweeping saga of adventure, betrayal, true love, forgiveness, hope, and sacrifice, about lost innocence and the darkness that dwells in all of us. The duology has some violence but can be considered clean, with no graphic sexual content or profanity. The second and final book, The Secret of Fire , ends with a happily-ever-after. Praise from reviewers for The Darcentaria Duology: “Wonderfully creative…” — Leticia G. “I couldn’t put it down…” — Anna J. “…probably the best Christian fantasy book I’ve ever read…” — Kimberly V. “There are moments… that I think will stay with me for the rest of my life.” — Alysha “Fast-moving, compelling, and thoroughly engaging…” — Catherine W. "I honestly don't know how these books are the author's debut novels—in my opinion, they're the quality of a magnus opus...I've had my first taste of J. J. Fischer, and I'm a big fan. I can't wait for her next books!" — Melissa T
