Ora Gad— an epic historical fiction packed with magical powers, seductive charm, and conflict between good and evil.
Ora Gad is the heroine of this historical fiction trilogy. Her saga spans over a century, and over three continents; Africa, Europe, and finally culminates in America in our days; more specifically in New York City Central Park.
Ora Gad is an epic tale filled with magical powers, seductive charm, and the clash between good and evil. It’s an account of love, betrayal, murders, hope, despair, religious zeal, witches, pirates, trolls, and non-stop action. Hers is a world of alluring magic where vigilance is her ally at every turn, for what looks good or bad may not necessarily be what it appears to be. Distinction between good and evil isn’t as evident as black and white. There’s a gray area, things are foggy; how will Ora Gad, the heroine, proceed?
Ora Gad the Trilogy: The Old Country—Book One, High Seas and Middle Passage—Book Two, and New York Central Park—Book Three.

From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Outskirts Press has perfected the art of self-publishing. Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
