Kristina O'Donnelly

Info

Author of seven exotic novels, Kristina O'Donnelly was born in Rome, Italy, from an Austrian mother and Italian father, and raised in Istanbul, Turkey. She was a journalist and poet in Turkey.

Her seventh novel, titled "Andromakhe, Daughters of the Fire, Book I," a Historical novel based on the Trojan War, and is the sequel to the contemporary travelogue/suspense novel, Trojan Enchantment (also available at amazon dot com).

Kristina O'Donnelly's diversified rucksack of professional experiences span 25 + years and include acting, writing (journalist, columnist, magazine editor, and publisher).

Married to her soulmate, Michael, of County Armagh, Northern Ireland, Kristina feels at home in Turkey, Ireland, as well as U.S.A. Her main body of work is Lands of the Morning, a series of 10 novels. Kaleidoscopic, exotic, international, ethnically diverse, Lands of the Morning is Michenesque in scope. The pervading theme in the Lands of the Morning Series is love, as well as social justice, explored on every level, controversial, all-consuming, and ultimately, redeeming. The trials, tribulations and triumphs of three respective families are traced from their roots in the mists of pre-history. They are the Berks, Trojans, the Alkibiades', Achaeans, and the Kayhans, Turks. Skeins of exotic people, places and customs rooted in Turkey and branching out to Ireland, Israel, United States of America, Italy, Greece, and Saudi Arabia, interlace the subplots with the fast-growing scheme of events, climaxing in an unexpected denouements.

The fruit of a lifetime of research and writing, this series is fiction based upon authentic, contemporary as well as historical backgrounds and events.

The Horseman, lead novel of the Lands of the Morning Series, has won two awards, including Romance Novel of the Year, Grandprize, by Jada Press, 2004, and then 1st Place for Multicultural Fiction, in 2005, bestowed by POW!.
