WILMINGTON, NC, Sept. 23, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ — Best-selling author Marlayne Giron’s new book of Christian fantasy fiction, “The Victor,” was written for modern readers who love epic fantasy fiction, like “Rings of Power”.

Readers and reviewers have praised the book. Robert Heath, Founder and Director of Kids for Christ/USA, said, “The Victor is an absolute ‘literary masterpiece’ that should be required reading in high schools across the country. In fact, if there was a must-read list for Christians, The Victor should be on it.

Karen Koch, former editor of the Christian Home Educators Association of California Magazine, said, “I loved this book. The author gave me tours of castles, sword fights, and sweet romance, but the novel reveals an eternal story of good versus evil that’s much deeper than meets the surface. Middle and high school students (and their parents) will love this tale of adventure, drama, betrayal, sacrifice, and ultimate victory.

The Victor will introduce – or re-introduce – readers to the majestic story of the Bible, a tale of love, redemption and victory. Although aimed at school-aged readers, adults will also be captivated by this one. Highly recommended!”
