Author Interview - kc dyer
Author of An Accidental Odyessy
When an unexpected phone call derails a young woman’s wedding plans, it sparks an epic adventure around the magical, modern-day Mediterranean. Gianna Kostas is on the cusp of a fairy tale life, but on her way to taste wedding cakes, things go sideways. An unexpected phone call sends Gia off on a wild journey half-way around the world in pursuit of her ailing—and nearly-estranged—father as he retraces Odysseus’s famous voyage. As Gia adventures – and eats – her way around the Mediterranean, she discovers that confronting epic storms, sea monsters and even ripped surfer dudes might just be the easy part.
