Odyssey Books

odyssey: An extended adventurous voyage; An intellectual or spiritual quest.

Books are always a journey. They take readers into new places, with new people; or show them familiar places cast with a new light. And writers know that the creative journey can be as long and uncertain as it is exciting.

We at Odyssey live for the adventures that books provide. We’re not afraid to take risks with new ideas and new writers; together, we create unique and beautiful books. Exploring new worlds and new concepts excites us, so much so that we’ll consider most genres, topics and formats. Our publications include full-length novels, novellas, non-fiction, chapbooks and remixed lit.

Based near Canberra, Odyssey Books publishes both Australian and international authors.
