Octavia Randolph

Historical Fiction Author

Octavia Randolph's twelve book - and counting - Circle of Ceridwen Saga transports the reader to 9th century England and Scandinavia, during the most critical years of the Viking incursions. Meticulous research combined with deep imagining have driven the Saga to cult status popularity among readers and listeners across the English-speaking world. Ms Randolph has studied Anglo-Saxon and Norse runes, learnt to spin with a drop spindle, and adapted authentic 9th century food for modern cooks. Her path has led to extensive on-site research in England, Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, and Gotland. She has been the recipient of Artistic Fellowships at the Ingmar Bergman Estate; MacDowell; Ledig House International; and Byrdcliffe. She lives on the Baltic island of Gotland, where the Saga novels are partially set.
