The Author

Njintieuh Sieni

Author of The Seven Kingdoms of K'Thari

  • Born in Cameroon
  • Writes from Florida
  • Book I of a 12-book saga

Njintieuh Sieni grew up in Cameroon on stories that were spoken, not written — told aloud and passed from voice to voice, each one carrying history, a warning, and a measure of wonder. He carried those voices with him to Florida, where he now lives and writes, and they speak through every page of his work.

The Seven Kingdoms of K’Thari: Blood of the Seven is his debut novel and the opening volume of a planned twelve-book saga — an epic fantasy rooted in African cosmology and oral tradition. Seven kingdoms. Seven sacred animals. One dying crown. And a secret old enough to unmake them all.

"I wrote the epic fantasy I never got to read growing up."

His Story

From voice to page

A lifelong multi-hyphenate creative, Njintieuh came to novels the long way. He made music, then designed clothing, and through it all kept drafting and building the stories that would become K’Thari. Storytelling is the thread that runs through everything he makes. (Fair warning: he’s a geek who hardly looks like one.)

In 2010, after the passing of his parents in Cameroon, he moved to the United States and began a new life in Florida — an ocean away from the voices that first told him stories. That distance, and that loss, are part of why putting these stories on the page matters so much to him. K’Thari is, in many ways, an act of remembering: a world where power is inherited and always answered for.

He chose to publish independently so the story could reach readers everywhere without waiting for anyone’s permission, building it piece by piece — the manuscript, the maps, the art, the covers — and learning each craft as he went. Book I is only the beginning. The saga widens from here, and his long-term ambition is to bring K’Thari to the screen: a world built to be seen, not only read.
