IT'S ONLY FICTION . . .





It’s Only Fiction But . . .

by Lillian Duncan

It’s only fiction but…could it happen?

I’m so excited about my new series—MESSENGER. This series has rattled around in my brain for a long time, but it’s not the type of book I usually write so I kept procrastinating. I finally decided it was time.

Keep in mind, I started writing this series last year, long before the pandemic.

The series is set in future America known as NewAmerica. Life is perfect in NewAmerica. No crime. No poverty. No war. No discrimination. Everyone is equal.  Life is perfect until the moment you wonder, “Is there a God?”

In many respects, NewAmerica sounds like the perfect place to live. But as is often the case, what looks perfect on the surface doesn’t look quite as good when you delve a little deeper.

There are four books in the series:

THE LAST CHRISTIAN (Book 1) is a short prequel that shows how America became NewAmerica. Mary Frances was born in the United States of America—land of the free and home of the brave. When anti-Christian sentiment spreads across America and the world along with a deadly pandemic, religious freedom becomes a thing of the past.

MESSENGER (Book 2) Magdalena Denton is an unlikely messenger since her home is NewAmerica where even saying the name of God is a crime, but when God has a message, he will always find a messenger.

UNCITIZEN (Book 3) Magdalena Denton’s bright future is gone. She’s been deemed an UnCitizen because she refuses to deny God. Her new-found faith is challenged as she struggles to stay alive, but God promises to never forsake his children.

EXILE (Book 4) After a daring escape, Magdalena and friend face life in the Empty Lands—an even more hostile environment  than they imagined. They discover that when you walk in faith, miracles become a reality. (Will release in July 2020.)

 It’s only fiction, but…could it happen?


 Lillian Duncan… turning faith into fiction.
 
Lillian lives in a small town in Ohio with her husband. She writes the types of books she loves to read. Even though her books cross genres, they have one thing in common, faith-based stories that demonstrate God’s love—and lots of action. OK, that’s two things.

She was a school speech pathologist for over 30 years but retired in 2012 after being diagnosed with bilateral brain tumors due to Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2), a rare genetic disease. 
Whether as an educator, a writer, or a speech pathologist, she believes in the power of words to transform lives, especially God’s Word. To learn more about Lillian and her books, visit:   www.lillian-duncan.com.

  1. Thank you so much for being on my blog today, Lillian. I have to admit I'm not much into speculative fiction but your series premise intrigues me. Best wishes to you and your writing, my friend.
