Stories forged from myth, science and imagination
CHILDREN OF ATLANTIS
"Alexander’s accessible narrative is as emotional as it is mythic, blending action-packed sequences with affecting moments of vulnerability and courage. [...] A thrilling, heartfelt journey of identity, friendship,
and rediscovered myth."
—Kirkus Reviews
Some powers are born in silence. Others echo through the heartbeat of the world.

Nada has mastered the art of blending in, which isn’t easy when you can literally see sound as shimmering waves of light. Her plan? Stay quiet, stay hidden, and definitely don’t let anyone catch on to her secret.
Enter Kani: the fearless new student from Hawai‘i who can sense and manipulate vibrations (which is as useful for earthquakes as it is for awkward silences). From the moment they meet, Nada’s carefully protected calm goes straight out the window.
What starts as a strange connection quickly spirals into something much bigger. Their abilities aren’t just unusual, they’re ancient. And their meeting? Anything but an accident. Nada and Kani are the last living heirs of Atlantis, chosen to guard a forgotten force that once kept the world in balance.
Now shadow creatures from myth are hunting them down. To survive, Nada and Kani must face a gauntlet of elemental trials, uncover who they truly are, and decide whether the bond growing between them is their greatest strength… or the weakness their enemies can exploit.
The fate of Atlantis, and maybe the whole world, rests in their hands. No pressure.
Vibrations: Children of Atlantis: "With well-developed characters, fast-paced action, and a vibrant narrative enhanced by alternating viewpoints, this novel will keep readers hooked from start to finish, making it a must-read for fans of Percy Jackson and myth-inspired fantasy." —Indie Reader

A Special Project Coming Soon
Together with my friend, writer and translator Sandra Ortu, I’m working on a project close to my heart: reviving and introducing to English-speaking readers the remarkable works of Italian women writers from the 19th and early 20th centuries, many of whom have been forgotten. I’ll share more details soon—stay tuned!
More Exciting Projects on the Horizon
In addition to the sequel to Vibrations, I’m also developing two new Young Adult novels—each with its own unique world and unforgettable characters. More adventures await, so keep an eye out for updates!


"17 Planets" was my debut novel, but I have since withdrawn it from the market with plans to update it. Originally written in a descriptive and epic style inspired by great science fiction writers like Asimov, Bradbury, and Herbert, I hope to give it a more dynamic and modern tone in the future. Below are some of the reviews it received.
17 Planets - The Captain
“The epic science fiction novel 17 Planets: The Captain by A. R. Alexander incorporates dystopian politics, intergalactic adventure, military action, and a medley of other literary elements to create a futuristic saga with extraordinary depth. A revolutionary new technology, the Ajna, offers humanity something it has sought for millennia: freedom from ill health and disease.
“However, one of the ruling factions has found a way to use this technological panacea to subjugate humankind. Captain Elizabeth Lee, a strong, intelligent, and enigmatic woman, takes on a pivotal role in stopping this threat to freedom within the universe."





David Korson for Readers’ Favorite
“17 Planets is an entertaining and intelligent sci-fi odyssey with a wide appeal. A.R. Alexander has written a book with a gripping plot, a strong heroine, and a fascinating dynamic between heroine and hero.”
