About

Neil O’Donnell is an anthropologist and life-long resident of Western New York. After years of studying changes to Native American and European societies through contact, he incorporated his discoveries into journal articles and short fiction pieces. O’Donnell’s intent was to relay professional discoveries to a wider audience. PEOPLE OF THE SWORD, the first in a historical saga, is the culmination of these efforts.

Story Behind The Book

PEOPLE OF THE SWORD started out as a collection of D&amp;D characters looking for adventure in 1984. Through the years, the characters changed to be fictionalized characters based on family, friends and people I encountered. I through in some of my Celtic heritage and my anthropological research to polish off the story, which now serves as a prelude to a series. I hope readers enjoy this journey as much as I enjoyed writing it.
