Author Biography

Olha Smulska was born in 1994. From early childhood, she discovered the power of words, writing poems inspired by nature, the songs of birds, and the sounds of streams and rivers. Rain and summer downpours have always inspired her with new ideas, while nature still remains a source of peace, creativity, and strength.

I am a Ukrainian author whose books were written during the war in Ukraine. In 2023, I wrote my first book for my daughter — The Magical Tale about Princess Dominika. It is a warm and sincere story based on real events connected with the birth of my little princess. The idea came to me during pregnancy — a magical and deeply creative period of my life.
The war changed the lives of millions of Ukrainians. Like many other people, I felt exhaustion, anxiety, and uncertainty. That is why I wanted to create an adventure story that could give readers laughter, hope, and the opportunity to escape from difficult thoughts, even if only for a short while.

Thus, the novel Pirates of Bermuda in New York was born — a humorous fantasy adventure story filled with unexpected twists, friendship, courage, and exciting events. I wrote it with the sincere hope of lifting the spirits of people going through difficult times, both in Ukraine and in other countries around the world.

I dream that my stories will find readers in many countries, bring joy and positive emotions, and inspire people never to lose faith in a better future.

Author Olha Smulska takes readers on a time-traveling action-adventure odyssey in Pirates of Bermuda in New York. In the 1600s, Helga was born to the captain of the pirate ship named Shadow. Over the years, she formed her own crew and sailed the seas, gathering all sorts of treasure for her fellow Bermudians. In the year 1700, pirate captain Tempest and his crew discover a way to travel to the year 2025 in New York City. After finding a welcoming host in the form of a man named Den, Tempest and his crew become aware of New York City's underground street racing scene. They ally with the "asphalt pirates" led by Black Smoke and begin stealing items that will aid them in their quest during the 1700s. However, Tempest chooses to remain behind while Black Smoke joins the Bermuda pirates.

Imagine if the Pirates of the Caribbean met the Fast & Furious franchise; you would probably end up with something like this. Add a dash of time travel adventure, and you're in for a wild rollercoaster of a ride. Filled with action, humor, and plenty of charm, Pirates of Bermuda in New York is an absolute blast to read. You never know what to expect from this book. Author Olha Smulska has created a fascinating world of old-school pirates and modern street racers that is not only captivating but also lots of fun. This is one of the most entertaining action-adventure novels I've read all year. The plot is completely unpredictable, while the characters are quirky and compelling in equal measure. Whether you like fast sports cars or old-school pirate sailing ships, this is the perfect book for you!

Pirates of Bermuda in New York by Olha Smulska is an imaginative adventure that smoothly combines the past with the present. The story starts with Helga, a young girl born into a pirate family in the 1600s. The novel takes readers on an exciting journey as Helga and her crew face the challenges of the high seas, including storms, battles, and the hunt for treasure. The story takes an unexpected turn when the pirates are transported to modern-day New York City through a mysterious prophecy. The contrast between 17th-century pirates and the busy, neon-lit streets of a modern city creates a unique and engaging storyline. The inclusion of historical portraits of real-life pirates adds an educational layer to the narrative, offering readers a glimpse into the Golden Age of Piracy.

Olha Smulska’s talent for blending historical elements with fantasy and modern settings is impressive. The detailed descriptions of pirate life, historical figures, and futuristic treasures from New York enrich the story. The pacing keeps readers engaged with action-packed scenes, touching moments, and surprising twists. The humor and friendship among the characters add a light touch that balances the tension and danger of their adventures. Smulska’s writing is imaginative and captivating, making Pirates of Bermuda in New York an enjoyable read. The novel’s unique premise, engaging characters, and mix of history and fantasy make it a great addition to the adventure genre. It’s a story that sparks the imagination and leaves readers eager for more tales of Helga and her crew, which I hope will happen often.
