“Rarely does a historical novel capture the vernacular, imagery and excitement of an entire era like Gunter Swoboda’s Mountains Of The Sea. As a surfer, historian and working professional, Gunter has successfully synthesized his career, his chosen sport and his passion for adventure and writing into an engaging story of murder, intrigue, high-seas adventure, friendship and, ultimately, love. From its opening pages, Mountains Of The Sea ably transports the reader from the lofty realms of European aristocrats into the colorful, exotic and sometimes dangerous life of an intrepid foreigner in the Pacific Islands at the point of pre-colonial European contact. This is a novel that reads as both entertaining and educational. Extraordinary and masterful writing from a potent new voice in modern literature.”—Tom Kamaki Linker, B.ED., M.A

Gunter O. Swoboda’s Mountains Of The Sea is a watershed voyage of epic proportions that takes you through the volatile moods of an historic Hawaiian ocean culture.
Walter Beaumont comes face to face with political intrigue, war, and the most enigmatic experience for an English aristocrat—that of riding the giant swells of Hawai’i.

About
Born in Vienna Austria, Günter and his family migrated to Australia in the early seventies when he was twelve years old.
After settling on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, he immediately acclimatised to the outdoor lifestyle and forged a deep relationship with the ocean that focused on surfing.
This led to an abiding passion and respect for the culture and history of the South Pacific. At university he studied philosophy and psychology and, becoming a counselling psychologist, forged a respected career as a therapist, coach and trainer in his practice on the Northern Beaches.
His ongoing interest in what makes us as humans excel has informed his continuing studies in philosophy and mythology and inspired him to pursue these concepts and ideas within the nature of storytelling. Four years ago, after an influential meeting in Los Angeles with Phil Goldfarb Günter began to devote more of his time and efforts to this interest in human stories, writing a high concept screen play from which he has now adapted the novel Mountains of the Sea, which has just been published and released.
Personally, Günter has been successfully married for over twenty-five years and has two adult children. He continues to explore his relationship to the sea, and when time allows likes to indulge his passion in music.
