Fiji was called ‘The Cannibal Isles’ for good reason, and the Methodist missionaries who insisted “The Fijian is your best friend and your worst enemy” knew what they were talking about. In Fiji: A Novel, authors Lance & James Morcan capture all the history and the violence, the lust, the religious bigotry, the beauty and the clash of cultures that existed in 19th Century Fiji.
In the 1800’s, Fiji was a melting pot of cannibals, warring native tribes, sailors, traders, prostitutes, escaped convicts and all manner of foreign undesirables. It’s in this hostile environment this historical adventure-romance is set.
Here’s what book critics say about this novel:
“A gripping and graphic story of historic Fiji.” –Great Historicals
“I give it 5 stars because that’s the maximum allowed.” –Random Writings Book Reviews, Suva
“An intense story that will have you turning the pages long into the night.” –Author Susan Heim
“A perfect combination of romance and action.” –The Kindle Book Review
