The world Duolody (World Odyssey/Fiji: A Novel) Lance & James MorcanWorld Odyssey (The World Duology, #1) by Lance & James MorcanSet in the 19th century, Nathan Johnson, Jack Halliday & Missionary Susannah Drake each for their own reasons are set to sea. Nathan the only American is off on an adventure of his life, Jack Halliday is sentenced by the British government for stealing hemp, and Susannah Drake, sets off on a mission with her Minister father. They all end up on the island of Fiji.Along the way they face danger, pirates, murder, death and interesting and (some) dangerous people, as they sail around the globe. Well written with great detail, I felt as if I were a passenger, watching and setting port in exotic locales. Susannah with her naive ways is likable, Nathan has character and Jack has likable traits as well.I feel adventure readers will enjoy World Odyssey.Fiji by Lance & James MorcanSusannah Drake and her widowed father are missionaries traveling to the Island of Fiji. Their mission is to spread the word on Christianity. Nathan Johnson is a trader and he too goes to the Island. Once there the missionaries find that the Island is not civilized and danger lurks everywhere. Violence is common and occurs too often.Susannah is sheltered and naive, the descriptions of this Island and the story line were interesting and it was a fast read. A bit of (graphic violence) at times but  very intense i needed to know  the story unfolds.Both Books are fantastic. I recommend reading The World Duology (World Odyssey / Fiji: A Novel), so you read one after the other to really get the entire story in on sitting. If not each book is great as a stand alone. I highly recommend to adventure lovers.*I was very please to receive this book as a gift.
