  Please don’t send me back to Earth. 
  The year is 2075. Earth is ruled by a one-world government. In order to maintain unity, all citizens must deny their national, racial, and religious identities—or suffer the consequences. 
  Stripped of her rights for refusing to assimilate, sixteen-year-old Philadelphia Smyrna escapes Earth’s religious containment camps when her father is summoned to work on Mars. The remote research base seems like a haven of tolerance—until she discovers it’s the same base where her brother mysteriously died two years before. Searching for answers, she stumbles into a hidden lab and uncovers terrifying experiments for an apocalyptic weapon. The scientist in charge has cruel plans for Earth, and he will kill to keep his secret hidden. Racing to stay one step ahead, Philadelphia must decide whether to save the people who have oppressed her for her entire life—or save her family and let Earth burn. 
  Red Rain is the first book in this fast-paced Christian sci-fi adventure for teens and adults.

  Daniel Roffel has always felt out of place-until the day an ancient book pulls him into Elvarion, a realm of wonder and danger hidden from the knowable world. In this vibrant land of enchanted forests and floating villages, Daniel meets Aelira, a spirited apprentice witch whose kindness begins to thaw his guarded heart. Guided by four legendary masters-Elowen, Maerin, Thorne, and Syra-he embarks on a journey to master magic's secrets in hopes of returning home. But Elvarion conceals darker threads: Liraeth, daughter of its iron-fisted ruler Lord Vaelros, holds loyalties that conflict with her growing affection for Daniel. As ancient prophecies awaken and friendships are tested, Daniel must decide if his newfound powers can bridge two worlds or ignite a war that will consume them all. Love, betrayal, and redemption await in this sweeping tale where one choice can change the fate of both realms.
