LONGWOOD, Fla., March 8 /Christian Newswire/ -- Evil has fallen upon the kingdom of Erylon in the land of Keokuk. Author M. J. Rusaw's sweeping fantasy novel, The Tides of Eternity: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups ($18.99, paperback, 978-1-61579-636-6), tells the tale of the last days of Erus--the original earth--the world that was and the life that was before the Rebellion brought evil and the Great Collapse. Join the prophetess Gailel along with her faithful confidante, Maid Kimia, as they struggle, flee, and fight against the forces of the heinous lord Daemen den Moc and his wicked blood magician, Rulik Suu. The prize? Nothing less than the everlasting souls of the Yune, Elves and humankind of the first earth--and the very life and liberty of Gailel's only son, the young Tylen, whom Daemen believes to be the prophesied Iylon Sor, the most powerful magician to ever live.

"I have been greatly inspired by God's Word, C.S. Lewis, and J.R.R. Tolkien, and I humbly hope my style and story proves seminal, inspiring others," the author says. "[My book] has greatly entertained and emotionally satisfied many readers while I was writing it. I believe it has wonderful potential to inspire, entertain, and satisfy readers everywhere who are looking for a new voice and a fresh story."

Rusaw--who has been a Christian for 49 years--tells a compelling story of a mythical world that mirrors this one, a world in which, amid the fires and fears and fantasies of every heart, a hero lives--a hero who longs and loves and hopes to leave a legacy. In the same vein, the author hopes to leave a lasting legacy as well, one patterned after C.S. Lewis' three-part plan for "conquering" the world. "As a writer, I do my best to work the plan, and to God be the glory," the author says.
