Let’s start from the end:
I’m proud of who I’ve become.

 After years of hard work, I’ve learned to celebrate my achievements. Living with dyslexia and ADHD often made me feel inadequate, but over time, those challenges have become my greatest strengths.

I’m Alessandra R. Alexander, a former Italian psychologist, now living in the English countryside with my family and our Labrador. This move, nearly a decade ago, opened my world to new cultures and deepened my passion for storytelling. With a vivid imagination, I’ve found my voice in the Young Adult genre, blending mythology and adventure into captivating tales.​

CHILDREN OF ATLANTIS

v

"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

Nada has spent her life hiding in plain sight, terrified that someone will uncover her secret gift—the ability to see sound as shimmering waves of light. But when she crosses paths with Kani, a bold new student who can feel and manipulate vibrations, their connection shatters the fragile quiet she's fought so hard to protect.

What begins as an uncanny bond quickly unravels into something far more dangerous. Their powers aren’t just rare—they’re ancient. And their meeting wasn’t a coincidence. They are the last living heirs of Atlantis, guardians of a forgotten force that once held the world in balance.

Now hunted by shadow creatures born from myth and invisible to everyone else, Nada and Kani are thrust into a race against time. To survive, they must unlock the truth of who they are—and what they were meant to become. But as the line blurs between friendship and something deeper, the cost of discovering their legacy grows steeper.

The fate of Atlantis—and the world—rests in their hands. But can they save it without losing each other?

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 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.”
