The Islands series is a collaboration between Patrick E. Craig and bestselling author Murray Pura. The trilogy includes Far On The Ringing Plains, The Scepter and The Isle, and Men Who Strove With Gods. The books blend historical settings with elements of myth and faith, creating stories that feel larger in scope than Craig’s Amish fiction.
The series has won awards and represents a creative partnership that also produced the Storm Riders western books. For readers familiar with Craig’s quieter Amish novels, the Islands trilogy offers a very different reading experience, with grander settings and more action-driven plots.
