These novels were co-written with his son James Morcan and published by Sterling Gate Books. Lance’s novels include the top rating historical adventures INTO THE AMERICAS and WHITE SPIRIT (both based on true stories) the international thriller series THE ORPHAN TRILOGY (The Ninth Orphan / The Orphan Factory / The Orphan Uprising) and the historical adventure series THE WORLD DUOLOGY (World Odyssey / Fiji: A Novel). I loved reading it as much as I loved Fiji.New Zealand novelist, screenwriter and film producer Lance Morcan is a prolific writer with various published books and released movies to his credit. From travel on land and then on the high seas, I was intrigued and completely pulled into the story from the start to the end of this book. It is a prequel to their first book, Fiji, but each book stands alone and you don’t have to read them in the order they were written in.įor the three main characters, there is change and danger at every turn.

It is a comfortable book that one can fully relax into because of its steady flow and lovely prose. Lance and James Morcan have a wonderfully easy style of writing, simple but descriptive, fast paced yet detailed. In this first novel, their lives are separate from each other, and by the end of the novel, they arrive in Fiji, though their paths have yet to cross. World Odyssey is an epic, a story that follows the tumultuous lives of three different people – Nathan, Jack, and Susanna.

Here’s Great Historicals’ review (unabridged) as it appears on Amazon: “I loved reading it as much as I loved Fiji,” the reviewer says of World Odyssey. Respected book review site Great Historicals has given a big thumbs up to our historical novels World Odyssey and Fiji: A Novel, books one and two in The World Duology.
