LANDS OF THE MORNING™ SERIES:

Kaleidoscopic and highly exotic, 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.

 Briefly, the general plot of Lands of the Morning is an arabesque fabric of international politics, contemporary and ancient history, mythology, ambition, passion, triumph and tribulation, set against a tapestry rich in subtle reflections of the author's experiences in the Fourth Estate in Turkey and the USA. Skeins of exotic people, places and customs rooted in Turkey -- Catal Hoyuk (Catalhuyuk), Troy, Gallipoli, Ephesus, Sardis, Pergamum, Bodrum/Halikarnassus, Constantinople, Istanbul, Tarsus -- and branching out to Italy, Greece, Ireland, Israel, U.S.A., keep the subplots interlaced with the fast-growing scheme of events, which climax in an unexpected denouement.

The fruit of a lifetime of research and writing, this series is fiction based upon authentic, contemporary as well as historical backgrounds and events. Readers compare the richly diverse scope of Kristina O'Donnelly's novels to James Michener, Colleen McCullough, Mary Renault and Anya Seton.
