Autorenporträt
Brian O'Sullivan was born in county Cork, Ireland. On completing a degree at University College Cork, he went on to travel extensively. Now based in New Zealand, he runs a small publishing company (Irish Imbas Books) with his family but returns to Ireland on a regular basis. Brian writes fiction that incorporates strong elements of Irish culture, language, history and mythology. These include literary short stories (The Irish Muse collection), mystery thrillers (The Beara Trilogy), a contemporary version of the Fionn mac Cumhaill/ Fenian legends (The Fionn mac Cumhaill Series) and the much-praised Irish Woman Warrior Series (the Liath Luachra Series) which has been adapted for the screen. Although he writes predominantly for an Irish audience, Brian's unique style, attention to historical accuracy and humour has meant that his books have become firm favourites of readers all around the world. His monthly newsletter 'Vóg' (with monthly articles on his writing and creative projects, aspects of Irish culture and other strange stuff) can be found via his website at: http://irishimbasbooks.com.
